Not every founder starts with a grand vision or a polished pitch deck! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Some start with curiosity ๐Ÿง
Some with a class project ๐Ÿ“ฝ
Some with late-night tinkering ๐ŸŒ™

In this session, hear from BLOCK71 founders who went from ideas to real hardware prototypes and early startup โ€” all while still in university! ๐Ÿซ Theyโ€™ll share their honest journey in entrepreneurship: the early mistakes, unexpected challenges, and what it really takes to build while juggling studies ๐Ÿ“š

If youโ€™ve ever wondered, โ€œCould I actually build something of my own?โ€, this is your starting point! See you there ๐Ÿ‘€โœจ
