Pick your next move.

You don’t need a perfect idea.

You don’t need a business plan. You don’t even need to know what entrepreneurship means yet. LaunchNET exists for JCU students, alumni, faculty, and staff who have a spark of something, a product idea, a service concept, an existing side hustle, and want help turning it into something real.

No grades. No pressure. Just coaching, mentoring, pitch competitions, idea contests, networking, and access to local resources that meet you exactly where you are.

LaunchNET is part of a network of schools (Baldwin Wallace, Kent State, Lorain County Community College, and Case Western Reserve) that collaborate so you get the unique strengths of each. The whole thing is free, funded by a grant from The Burton D. Morgan Foundation.

Where to find us: Lower level of Grasselli Library in B105B, right next to the Burton D. Morgan Creativity Classroom.

Most teachers know AI is changing everything. Few know what to do about it.

We run workshops, keynotes, and webinars that give educators practical, experience-tested ways to use AI tools for lesson planning, content creation, grading workflows, and classroom delivery.

No hype. No theory. Just the stuff that actually works, built from years of doing this in our own courses and programs every single day.

We also work with schools and programs that want their students using AI responsibly before they hit the job market. Custom programming is available for high school and college faculty, departments, and institutions ready to stop talking about AI and start using it.
