SUMMARY:Cross University Event: Co-Founder Matching Mixer
DESCRIPTION:Finding your co-founder should make you say AHH! \nJoin us for the Cross-University Cofounder Matching Mixer—and this year\, we’re making it easier than ever to find the people you actually want to build with. \nJoin entrepreneurial students from BU\, Harvard\, Tufts\, Babson\, MassArt\, and beyond for a night of structured co-founder matching\, big ideas\, and real connections. \nHere’s how it works: grab two stickers at the door. \nThe first tells the room who you are: \n🔴 Asker — You spot opportunities\, ask the hard questions\, and make sure teams are solving real problems \n🔵 Hacker — You build fast\, experiment relentlessly\, and turn ideas into working prototypes \n🟢 Hustler — You rally people\, recruit early believers\, and build excitement around a vision \nThe second tells the room what you bring: \n🟣 Design 🟠 Code 🟡 Build ⬛ Strategy 🔷 Science 🩷 Finance \nThen rotate through venture stations\, pitch your idea in 60 seconds\, and let the matching begin. \nWhether you’re sitting on an idea that needs a team\, or you’re ready to lend your skills to something worth building—this is your time.
