Barnard Startup Summit
2023-06-16 10:00 - 19:00 UTC
Hosted by the Athena Center for Leadership and Barnard Entrepreneurs network (BEnet) and now in its third year, 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 16, 2022, in midtown Manhattan.
From 10:30 AM to 5 PM, Summit participants will receive an overview of a few key things all entrepreneurs need to know, about business models, intellectual property, company formation, fundraising, and pitching.

From 5-7 PM, participants will join alum entrepreneurs and members of the broader Barnard entrepreneurial community for a reception. We’re really looking forward to this chance to get to know each other better!

Aspiring and emerging entrepreneurs can register for the Summit here.

Members of the broader Barnard entrepreneurial community can RSVP to attend the reception here.
