This is a place for startup founders to have time where they can vent about anything regarding their experiences.
From our experiences, we found it incredibly valuable to have a place to talk among people who can empathize with similar situations.
💡Boiler Demo Day 2022
We are thrilled to announce our annual Demo Day is scheduled for April 14th! Demo Day will include an opportunity to interact with startups who participated in The Boiler accelerator. Startups will also be pitching in a final competition. Students, alumni, venture capitalists, and investors will be invited to attend and explore the business ideas being created at all levels.
The Anvil is hosting 8 promising student startups from our latest batch of the Boiler Accelerator. With a proven track record over the last 8 years with successes like Mimir (Acq. 2020 by HackerRank), Socio (Acq. 2022 by Cisco), and Glimpse (YC S20, Seed), AeonCharge (YC W22, Seed), The Boiler program has founded over 50 startups and led to over $60 million in capital raised.
This event will be an in-person event, however if you are interested in tuning in virtually, please select the virtual option during registration and depending on demand, we will plan accordingly.
Details: Thursday April 14 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM EDT @ Purdue Memorial Union South Ballroom
