Recap: V1 Startup Fair F22
Make sure to come out to V1 Weekly this Friday, December 2nd 5-6PM! @ Ross R0240
V1 Startup Fair was incredible! Shoutout to everyone who made it to the in-person and hybrid events, as well as for our Keynote speaker, General Partner @ Andreessen Horowitz, Peter Levine 🚀
Startup Fair was created for students to discover, connect with, and work at the fastest-growing startups, while making connections that truly inspire you along the way. We think it’s safe to say that the overwhelming interest across campus only serves to strengthen the purpose of our mission. We had over 150 in-person attendees, 300 virtual attendees, and 15 high-growth startups (including Ramp, Retool, and Lumos) hosting virtual booths & Tech Talks, and an ∞ number of connections made!
Thanks to everyone who joined us last Wednesday. If you could take 2 minutes to fill out our feedback form here, we’d love to hear your thoughts on how we can make next year’s Startup Fair 10x better :)
Finally, we hosted 9 of Michigan’s top student startups. We hope you had the opportunity to connect with them in-person and learn more about what they’re building! 🎉Shoutout to Shade Robotics, DealDog, Dabl, CollegeDao, Ultima Insights, MeetYourClass, BeatNami, Tour.Video, and Halogen Labs!
We’re so excited to see our community grow and set out to navigate the startup scene. Exploring your interests and options this early in your career is just the beginning. We can’t wait for what’s next — stay tuned for more 10x V1 events later this year🤫 Photo Album
