The EVCC (Entrepreneurship & Venture Capital Club) Matchmaker event is for cross-school collaboration for students interested in the world of entrepreneurship. It is a place where the brightest students from undergrad, MBA, Medical School, Law School, and Engineering can share their ideas with classmates and join existing teams or form new teams to tackle the world's most challenging problems. This event will be hosted virtually on October 20th and we look forward to advancing entrepreneurship at Duke through the formation of new and cross-functional teams.
Come explore the emerging technologies, creative business models, and new ideas that are propagating the energy space. At the Energy Innovation Showcase, innovative start-ups, incubators, researchers, and investors share their experience and technologies with you in this virtual showcase. Peruse participating organizations' video intros (coming soon) beforehand, and we'll kick off the evening with opening remarks from GRID Alternatives then move into a virtual room** where you can visit organizations' tables to ask questions and learn more.
