About this Event

Instead of a traditional “demo day,” SEAL culminates in Decision Day where, based on individual research and expert feedback, teams from UT Austin determine whether their venture can survive the real world and make a go or no-go decision. Our summer 2026 cohort will be presenting their startup findings to experts and investors to make their final decisions on July 30th in Rowling Hall. Come join the excitement and witness real-world challenges entreprenreneurs must face to succeed!
