I went to the Rose Cafe Talk by Peter Cortle about the many resources offered to students interested in startups. For me, while a startup could be interesting, there are lots of complicated aspects to it, including how to get the starting budget, and how to reach the people who could be potential customers. I do not have many ideas for startups, but I think if someone wanted an embedded systems engineer or hardware engineer, I could probably help with that. In his talk, Peter mentioned the different resources including eHub events and the different competitions one could partake in, in order to get the initial startup money and even a mentor, in addition to mentioning Startup Tree – a platform for startups to connect with other talents and mentors. I was surprised after the talk about all the different resources in events that the Cornell. After the talk, I did consider thinking more about a startup, but I think I would be more interested in a cafe rather than a tech based startup.
