Event opens doors for opportunities, connections between students and startups

Launch Chapel Hill Thursday, Nov. 14 | 5:00-7:00 p.m.

What better way to experience the excitement and innovative promise of UNC-Chapel Hill startups than through the Startup Meet and Greet? For both students and startup ventures, the event is a great way to network and build relationships in the Carolina startup community.

Are you a Carolina student who’s curious about working at a startup?
Come meet UNC-affiliated startups, learn what it’s like to work in a startup environment and make connections with startup leaders that could land you an internship or potential job. You’ll also meet Carolina alumni who are active in the entrepreneurial community.

Are you a startup founder or leader?
Then come meet talented UNC-Chapel Hill students who are looking for the opportunity to learn more about your world and offer you some of the skills they’ve acquired at UNC.

Tips from UNC Career Services
UNC Career Services will host a Q&A with startups on how to engage with interns, post effective internship job postings, etc. For students, UNC Career Services will center on how to best pitch themselves to startups – tips on professionalism as well as presenting yourselves to startups. 

More than 35 startups participated last year and a larger turnout is expected this year. You won’t want to miss this dynamic event. Register today to lock in your spot.
