Community and Competition
NCSSM’s mentorship accelerator is a launchpad for student-driven projects, empowering clubs, competition teams, and publications to thrive. Tailored to the diverse interests of high school students, the program fosters creativity, collaboration, and leadership. Students pursuing their passions through clubs and initiatives receive support from mentors and industry experts as they build skills and bring their ideas to life.
Our accelerator goes beyond supporting activities—it builds communities and leaders. By offering mentorship, guidance, and connections to resources, we empower students to excel in competitions, launch impactful publications, and create organizations that drive meaningful change within and beyond NCSSM.

Frontier Journal
NCSSM’s Colopy Entrepreneurship Program proudly supports the newly formed student-led journal dedicated to exploring economics and related issues. This publication provides a platform for students to delve into economic theory, policy, and real-world applications, fostering critical thinking and intellectual curiosity. By offering guidance and mentorship, and financial support, the Accelerator helps students navigate the complexities of publishing while encouraging them to explore innovative concepts like Schumpeter’s "creative destruction," where entrepreneurship and economic change intersect. Together, we aim to inspire a deeper understanding of economics and its relevance to innovation and leadership.
