What a great way to wrap up the year! We had 92 people attend the showcase and a classroom full of attendees. We also had 88 people vote in the Crowd Favorite vote.
Students from UW-Madison spent the last semester developing and fine tuning their business ideas and demonstrates the hard work the students put into this year’s program. We have everything from drones that deliver life-saving medical care, deeptech AI, cofounder matching, campus transportation, laser tag and much more just in this cohort.
