Event Description
Do you have a new venture idea addressing a problem affecting people or the planet? Do you want to reinvent or improve an existing business venture doing so? Are you looking to join one of these teams?
Columbia University students are invited to the Hacking for Humanity and the Planet Venture Incubator information session and team building mixer. The impact venture incubator course [B8527] will be taught on Wednesdays from 5:40–8:55 pm, Term B of the Spring 2022 semester by Professor Joy Fairbanks. The course fosters cross-campus access and collaboration to leverage Columbia talent and resources to build teams, access any necessary technology, advance ventures, and gain investor interest. Participants will build new or advance existing social, environmental, health, and other impact ventures through collaborative investigation, experimentation, iterative design, network building, and compelling presentations to interested early stage investors.
