 |
V1 Startup Fair at the University of Michigan 🔥
V1 is hosting Startup Fair, an event to discover, connect, and work at the fastest-growing startups. Join us and top startups to find career-defining matches at a hybrid event held in the Ross School of Business on February 4th @ 1 PM ET.
Startups are a transformative force in the business world. We want to provide the pathway for students to work at one. As college students, we understand the struggle of finding a company that you’re passionate about and whether your skillset is applicable to the problems you’re dealing with. Our mission is to help you avoid impersonal, monotonous internet scouring and help you discover and create genuine connections that truly inspire you.
If accepted, you’ll hear about emerging tech straight from company speakers and meet with them one-on-one to learn about goals, vision, and your potential for impact within the startup ecosystem. You’ll also have the chance to network with a like-minded community and get free custom T-shirts and stickers! ✨
Benefits of Working at a Startup
If we haven’t convinced you yet, here are some of the strongest reasons to join a startup as a college student
Increased Impact: working in smaller teams will give you the opportunity to see the difference you're making.
Professional Growth: as the startup quickly scales, your role scales with it - you’ll gain lots of responsibility quickly and learn more about the fundamentals of your industry.
Community: get to know, have fun, and grow close with other passionate peers who love to experiment and innovate. You’ll be interacting and learning from trailblazers in your industry.
The most influential companies in the world include Facebook, Snapchat, and AirBnB—all founded by college students. There is great untapped potential and opportunity for students in startups to work and develop on cutting-edge technology, with your input and direction. College and your early career is the time to explore your interests and take risks—what better time to join a startup?
Make sure to apply (~5mins) by January 22nd @ 11:59 PM and reach out to v1startupfair@umich.edu for any questions! ⚡️
