Dana Hall School: Girls Summer Entrepreneurship Program

The Girls Summer Entrepreneurship Program seeks to cultivate participants capacity for leadership to lead the start-ups of the future! In GSEP, rising juniors and seniors work in teams to develop a business or product idea, culminating in a pitch to potential investors in a contest called “The Dragon’s Lair”.

We seek to cultivate in its participants Dana Hall School’s core values of integrity, leadership, diversity, and service, as well as respect for self and others. Girls may be entering any high school; the program is not restricted to those entering Dana Hall. 

At Dana Hall, we understand that girls are different than boys. We know that each girl can lead in her own way. We encourage young women to take risks, find their strengths, and discover their voices. Girls will gain invaluable exposure to real-world business practice, and a firsthand understanding of the opportunities and challenges facing female entrepreneurs.
