Not every founder starts with a grand vision or a polished pitch deck! 😱
Some start with curiosity 🧐
Some with a class project 📽
Some with late-night tinkering 🌙
In this session, hear from BLOCK71 founders who went from ideas to real hardware prototypes and early startup — all while still in university! 🏫 They’ll share their honest journey in entrepreneurship: the early mistakes, unexpected challenges, and what it really takes to build while juggling studies 📚
If you’ve ever wondered, “Could I actually build something of my own?”, this is your starting point! See you there 👀✨
