About
StartUp Scramble Overview
The first StartUp Scramble™ launched in Washington D.C. in January 2010. Sixty-five student leaders from 7 universities spent 48 hours learning to pitch, plan, test, and build startup projects with the help of experts and advisors. Everyone had so much fun that we had to do more. Through the support of our Sponsors and Partners, Scrambles are expanding to 4 major cities across the US!
