"To produce a great entrepreneurial program it's important to incorporate different perspectives and the expertise across campus. In our experience, programs are stronger and have the ability to reach more people when we partner with peer organizations," Center for Entrepreneurship executive director Doug Neal said in a news release.

The program will include a showcase of student-led tech startups as well as a “pitch karaoke” that will give people a chance to pitch ideas or ventures to attendees. Students, faculty, staff, and members of the Ann Arbor and Southeast Michigan startup community will also have a chance to network and “leave their mark” on a startup wall at the event.

The UM Startup Interactive will be in Hutchins Hall of Aikens Commons at 625 S. State St. attendees are encouraged to RSVP here.
