Navya Agrawal

Navya Agrawal is an Electrical Engineering student at Tufts University with a founder’s instinct for spotting problems others overlook. She co-founded EyeQ, a venture tackling a critical challenge in autonomous systems security, building an advisory network of defense and aerospace professionals along the way. As president of TAMID at Tufts, she leads a national organization that trains students in consulting and investing through real, hands-on work with Israeli startups, pairing business fundamentals with practical exposure to a fast-moving global tech ecosystem. At the Derby Entrepreneurship Center, that same instinct takes a different shape: Navya’s job is to close the gap between conviction and a working product, helping student founders push past the idea stage into something real, tested, and built to last.
