Build With Harvard Founders

SEP15
17:00

About this event

Meet Harvard Business School founders before their teams are formed.
Meet current Harvard founders, discover what they’re building, and explore what you could build together.
We’re bringing a curated group of engineers to Harvard Business School to meet this semester’s founders, see what they’re building, and explore what you could build together.
3:00pm · Inside the classroom (optional)
Join the Harvard Business School class as an invited guest and watch the founders pitch their ideas live. Get an early look at the ventures, the people behind them, and the problems they’re trying to solve. Classroom places are limited and confirmed separately.
5:00pm · Founder × Engineer Meetup
Meet the founders directly and connect around cofounding, early engineering roles, technical advice, and building together over the semester and beyond.
The founders bring ideas, business and industry experience, and the ambition to build companies. You bring the technical perspective that can help turn those ideas into something real.
Not a cold mingle. Structured introductions that make it easy to connect.
No awkwardly wandering around a room wondering who to talk to. We run structured networking rounds so every introduction has a purpose and everyone gets a chance to meet.
The goal is to turn “we should talk” into “let’s build.” Come find your next cofounder, an early-stage opportunity, or simply some of the sharpest people in Boston to exchange ideas with. Make connections that last beyond one night.
Who it’s for
Computer science students, recent graduates, and working software, AI, and other technical engineers who want to get closer to the startup world. You don’t need your own startup idea or to be actively job-hunting.
A note on registration
We keep our events intentionally small so everyone has the chance to make meaningful connections. Registrations are reviewed with the founders’ startups and the overall mix of engineers in mind, helping us bring together people who could genuinel
