Barnard Startup Summit 2024

Attention, Barnard-connected entrepreneurs! It’s Startup Summit time! 

Hosted by the Athena Center for Leadership and Barnard Entrepreneurs network (BEnet), the Barnard Startup Summit is a free, in-person opportunity for student and alum entrepreneurs to work with a successful group of Barnard alums in support of their for-profit ventures and for all Barnard-connected entrepreneurs to deepen our community in person. The event will be held on Friday, June 7, 2024, in midtown Manhattan.

From 10:30 AM to 5 PM, Summit participants will learn about:

• The types of business models for a new venture
• The importance of intellectual property
• The basics of forming a company
• The truth behind fundraising
• The secrets to pitching with confidence

We'll conclude with a Celebration of Entrepreneurship - a reception from 5 PM to 7 PM where you can meet successful Barnard alum entrepreneurs and network with your cohort!
