About this Event

COME ONE, COME ALL

The Entrepreneurs Challenge at NYU is both an accelerator program and startup competition. Hosted by the Berkley Center for Entrepreneurship at the NYU Stern School of Business, its aim is to identify the most disruptive venture ideas at NYU.

Join us for our 22nd Annual Venture Showcase event to meet this year’s 19 semi-finalist teams. Instead of listening to pitches from afar, you'll have the opportunity to mix and mingle with the founders directly and engage with their teams--up close and personal for the 1st time in 3 years! From health management technologies to sustainable consumer products to cutting edge commercial solutions, these ventures represent the most exciting and innovative startups at NYU. Several hundred NYU alumni, angel investors, venture capitalists, entrepreneurs, industry innovators and fans of the startup scene attend each year to connect with and support the entrepreneurial stars of the NYU community.

This event will take place at NYU Stern's Tisch Hall. Light hors d’oeuvres and beverages will be served. Be sure to check out the 19 teams showcasing!

If you are NOT a current NYU student, faculty or administrator please register with your non-NYU email so we can get you guest access to the event.

Attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about the ventures, ask questions, and interact directly with the founders.

NYU students, alumni, faculty and staff who are interested in learning more about the startups coming out of the University are strongly encouraged to attend. We also welcome investors, entrepreneurs, and those interested in the New York startup and innovation space.
