CobraVenture is a student entrepreneur cohort for current Parkland
College students who want to start their own business while still in
enrolled in college.
Each year, the student cohort attends business workshops and work on developing their ideas before the annual CobraVenture Pitch Competition in May. Each student has five minutes to present their pitch to a panel of judges and compete for thousands of dollars in seed money for their business.
This year's competition will be held on May 19, 2025 from 5–8 pm in the Parkland College Student Union.
