🌟 A great initiative - Tsai Center for Innovative Thinking at Yale (Tsai CITY)'s Startup Yale 2024! 🎓 Just wrapped up a great time helping select applications for the Sustainable Venture Prize and Yale Innovator's Prize at Startup Yale 2024. Witnessing the innovative spirit and community-driven solutions showcased by the applicants has been awesome! 🚀Startup Yale serves as a catalyst for student entrepreneurs, providing them with funding, mentorship, and networking opportunities crucial for turning their ideas into impactful ventures. It's a testament to the power of university ecosystems in nurturing innovation and driving positive change.🚀 💡A few thoughts to anyone looking to apply at the early stage to similar initiatives: When crafting your concept and startup pitch, focus on demonstrating a clear need for your product or service. What problem are you addressing, and why is the market demanding a solution? Whether it's addressing a broad and large market, or delving deep into a specific issue with a high willingness to pay, understanding the value you create and the market size for that is key. 🎯 Remember, creating value doesn't automatically translate into revenue! Early understanding of the dynamics of a target market is important in showing funders this is a sustainable and scalable business - Who is going to pay? Why will they pay? How much will they pay? How will your business capture that? - Now and in the future! 💰 Leverage the vast network and knowledge base available in university ecosystems and communities. Pull in talented people and gather insights to refine your ideas.👩💻 Really impressed by the quality and focus of the awards and applicants at Startup Yale. To all at Yale University, I encourage you to apply going forward 🌍💼 #StartupYale #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #Impact https://startup.yale.edu/ Matthew Gira Peter Mitchell Ed Phillips Future Planet Capital
