The agenda will be:
4:00 – 4:35 pm: Summer Accelerators info session
4:35 – 4:55 pm: Intros for those w/ an idea or venture seeking a team member (30 seconds each)
4:55 – 5:15 pm: Intros for individuals seeking to join a team (30 seconds each)
5:15 – 6:00 pm: All participants can mix and mingle

PLEASE NOTE: Attending an info session is a mandatory requirement of applying to both the Summer Startup Sprint and Summer Launchpad programs. These opportunities are only open to current and recently graduated (2022 or 2023) NYU students and postdocs (or non-NYU startup team members who already have an NYU co-founder). These programs are NOT for credit. However, (just like a startup) they REQUIRE full-time commitment to your venture during the length of the program.

Both programs are led by the team at the NYU Entrepreneurial Institute.

The NYU Entrepreneurial Institute provides reasonable accommodations to people with disabilities. Requests for accommodations for events and services should be submitted at least two weeks before the date of the accommodation need. Please email entrepreneur@nyu.edu for assistance.
