What is EntrepreNERD?

A Card Game That Creates Real Business Ideas

EntrepreNERD is a social card game that helps players create, pitch, and pressure-test business ideas in minutes, not months.

Using a mix of Problem, Industry, and Twist cards, players generate unexpected startup concepts, pitch them to the room, and compete for investment from fellow players.

It's Dragons Den meets Cards Against Humanity

Perfect for

  • Game nights
  • Startup teams
  • Universities & schools
  • Workshops & away days
  • Anyone with an idea (or no ideas yet)

How the Game Works

Simple Rules. Endless Ideas.

1

Draw the Cards

Combine a Problem, an Industry, and a Twist to create a totally unique business idea.

2

Pitch Your Idea

You've got 30-60 seconds to sell it. No slides. No prep. Just thinking on your feet.

3

Get Challenged

Other players ask questions, poke holes, and try to break your idea (in a good way).

4

Secure Investment

Players secretly invest using investment cards. The strongest ideas win the funding.

5

Crown the Winner

Track investments across rounds to find the top founder and the savviest investor.

What Makes EntrepreNERD Different?

Not Just a Game. A Launchpad.

Most games stop when the winner is crowned. EntrepreNERD goes further.

A percentage of EntrepreNERD's profits is set aside each year to fund real business ideas created during gameplay.

If you play the game and come up with something special, you can submit your idea to be considered for real-world backing.

From kitchen tables to boardrooms, great ideas can come from anywhere.

The Funding Loop

Play the Game. Build the Future.

  • 5% of EntrepreNERD profits are allocated to an annual idea fund
  • Players can submit business ideas created during the game
  • Selected ideas receive funding, mentorship, or support
  • Successful ideas fuel the next generation of EntrepreNERDs

It's a virtuous circle -- the game funds the ideas, and the ideas fuel the ecosystem.

EntrepreNERD isn't just a card game -- it's a growing community.

The EntrepreNERD Podcast explores startup stories, real founders behind real businesses, ideas born from the game itself, and lessons learned from pitching, failing, and trying again.

Why We Built This

Because Ideas Shouldn't Die in Notebooks

Too many great ideas never leave the room they were spoken in.

EntrepreNERD exists to make idea generation fun again, help people practice pitching safely, encourage smarter questions and feedback, turn creativity into confidence, and occasionally... turn ideas into funded businesses.

Entrepreneurship shouldn't be gatekept. It should be played.

Ready to Play?

Whether you're looking for a great game night, a team workshop tool, or the spark for your next business idea -- EntrepreNERD delivers.
