Supercharging ATX’s Seed Startup Ecosystem - Sunset Happy Hour hosted by the Austin Clubs of Harvard, Stanford & MIT

​Hello ATX!

​Join us for an inter-club sunset happy hour bringing together the MIT, Stanford, and Harvard entrepreneurship and angel communities of Austin.

​From 6-8:30 pm, we will have a sunset networking happy hour with drinks and appetizers included, designed to deepen collaboration and spark seed entrepreneurship in Austin.

​Our vision is to grow Austin's GDP via unicorn companies that start, scale, and exit in Austin. We hope to seed 5-10 new unicorn companies before 2030.

​Participating Clubs:

• ​Stanford Angel & Entrepreneurs Club

• ​MIT Club of Austin and San Antonio

• ​Harvard Business School Austin Alumni Angels Club

​60-Second Pitches - Share what you are working on!

​We’ll host fast 60-second pitches from attendees — a fun, lightweight way to share what you’re working on and what you’re looking for (capital, hires, advisors, intros, etc.) and to spark meaningful conversations during the happy hour.

​If you’d like to pitch, please mark yes as you register via Luma.

​Location:

​Sky Longe at Hanover Republic Square Luxury Residences
