Start-Up Ventures Clinic
The Start-Up Ventures Clinic will represent a range of early-stage ventures on a variety of matters related to the start-up process. It is expected that many of these ventures will be led by student teams associated with the Duke Start-Up Challenge, the Fuqua School of Business's Program for Entrepreneurs, and the many entrepreneurship programs at the Pratt School of Engineering. If you are interested in practicing entrepreneurial law, or business law more generally, the Start-Up Ventures Clinic provides the opportunity to develop critical professional skills and deepen your substantive legal knowledge through the direct representation of start-up businesses.
