Making a Comeback

My dearest blog readers, I know it has been awhile since I have posted to the blog, but the NC State Entrepreneurship Initiative has been super busy lately. Our students and staff have had a successful start to spring 2013. Our latest accomplishment was coordinating the ACC Clean Energy Challenge which happened last week, and the NC State team even made it to the Final Four round! I hope each of your starts to the spring have been equally as exciting. I have an exciting week of blog posts ahead, so keep reading and please feel free to add your input.

Celebrations All Around!

We have a great deal of exciting entrepreneurial news to share with our NC State Entrepreneurship Community.

Congratulations are in order for both Heather Troutman and Mark Delgado, for the successful Meredith College TEDx lectures. I will be publishing a post shortly with links to their videos! Both Heather and Mark were excited about speaking at the local event; they both shared stories about their individual entrepreneurial experiences.

This past Wednesday at the Hunt Library NC State will be hosted "Start-Up Madness", an ACC student competition. Imagine the feeling in the room when the best student entrepreneurs from all the ACC schools gather together during March Madness.  Fans were able to witness students from 13 different universities who are executing on BIG ideas, pitch them in multiple rounds. We are proud to say our very own Mark Delgado, CEO and Found of Koyr, placed second in the competition! Congratulations to Mark!
