Spike Lab operates as an education-focused startup incubator for high school students, providing one-on-one entrepreneurship coaching to help them build real-world social ventures and businesses. The program aims to nurture a mission mindset—helping students discover purpose and passion—and to turn that energy into tangible projects, referred to as Spikes. The approach leverages experienced coaches who work with young people from around the world. Based in New York City, Spike Lab was founded in 2016 by Stanford and University of Michigan alumni with backgrounds in entrepreneurship and education. It operates with a small team and draws on coaches who have guided thousands of students globally. In April 2022, Spike Lab launched its initial pilot, developing its processes and forming partnerships with local teen organizations.
