From idea to market. 💡

Annave Noel, C’2027, began developing Luminous SKN Care through Spelpreneur, Spelman College’s entrepreneurship program. This summer, the biology major used her entrepreneurship, branding, pitching and business strategy skills to launch her own brand.

Her journey shows what can happen when students go from learning to putting lessons into action.
