Triangle Academy empowers students with the essential tools to become leaders, entrepreneurs, and innovators with a strong focus on building a better world. Our programs promote student development in key areas such as leadership, goal-achievement, academic ownership, teamwork and multiculturalism. As students develop in these areas, they emerge as independent thinkers who demonstrate greater responsibility not only for their own actions but also for leading the future with passion and purpose.

What they say about us?
- Neil ShahWatch the review on InstagramThrough this camp we've met so many mentors in different cities. We’ve met everyone from the fashion industry, to hard tech, to gene editing. We’ve met so many different people and it has been very eye opening for me to new industries that I had no idea existed.
Overall, I’ve learned a specific new skill from every single entrepreneur and mentor that we met, and it will definitely help me with my own startup and hopefully any future business ventures I have. - RiaWatch the review on InstagramIt is a great honor to be a part of the Triangle Camp! I love meeting friends from all over the world.
- Max and Anna ZaharovWatch the review on InstagramI liked the colleges, of course, and the opportunities of meeting different investors and me learning about their life’s dream in progress. It was a very inspiring experience and I liked it a lot.
I loved how we got to ask questions and have an actual conversation, rather than having a lecture… A conversation is way better than a couple YouTube videos and a class in school, because you can ask more specific questions and get a detailed answer back.
