About Event

From Campus Ideas to Real-World Products
Got a hardware idea? Join student builders from across campuses for an afternoon of building, pitching, and meeting the people who can help you launch. This is the pre-launch of Build NEXT, a US University Builders Program, where you can find co-founders, meet investors, and use VLight to turn your idea into a real, manufacturable product, starting from a single unit.

What you'll get

Find your co-founder. Team up with engineers, designers, and business builders.
Build with VLight. Get free credits with your .edu email and go from AI design to factory-ready specs and real quotes in days.
Meet investors. Pitch to Plug and Play, VCs, angels, and accelerators.
Access factories. Get direct links to suppliers and manufacturers, with a minimum order of one.
Mentorship and launch. Get coaching on pitching and PR, plus a fast track to Kickstarter.
