Makers Market

real Entrepreneurial experience

The Homeschool Makers Market is designed for students to learn about entrepreneurship and everything that goes into starting a business: design and innovation, learning and developing skills to create a product, understand the customer and their need for the product, communication and confidence when selling, learning about systems and data, and the overall the difficulties and joy of being their own boss.

Vertical Immersive believes in introducing young students to the concepts of entrepreneurship at an early age. Not only will students get to experience a true maker’s market and see their business and products come to fruition, but Vertical Immersive provides a Maker’s Market clinic and a workbook to guide parents and students as they complete their project.
