Students2Startups is a brand-new-to-Rochester event designed to connect local college students with local startup founders. Many college students express a desire to work at a startup; however, it can be difficult for students to identify and connect with these fledgling companies. Startup companies are often seeking interns, but may not have the time or resources to find and hire good candidates. Students2Startups, hosted by High Tech Rochester, aims to make this process easier for both parties.
This will be an opportunity for local college students to hear pitches from local startup companies, decide which companies they’re most interested in, and network with the founders of those companies. Students are encouraged to bring a copy of their resume, though no applications or interviews will take place the night of the event. If you have any questions regarding this exciting new event, please don’t hesitate to contact High Tech Rochester at info@htr.org.
