major differentiator compared with other internship programs. Typically held in late May, boot camp focuses on building leadership and innovation skills that will help fellows to succeed in their placements. As their project for the week, fellows will put those skills to the test in a real-world challenge to develop a creative solution for a non-profit or entrepreneur. <br><br>Networking is another essential element of boot camp. Fellows will connect with Maine entrepreneurs and business leaders at events and through project work. The boot camp also fosters the development of a close-knit cohort among fellows, a support system that the students can draw on over the course of their summer placements and beyond.<br><br><\/h2>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading29_b20329-42,
