Velocity Beginning of Term Conference Videos
My stay at Velocity has exceeded all my initial expections. To begin the term, all Velocity residents were invited to attend the Velocity Gala to have dinner with industry leaders and Velocity’s sponsors. The day after the event, we had a conference dedicated to Velocity residents. There were great keynote speakers who I’ve heard of at Impact’s National Conference, but they reminded me of what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur.
The beginning of term events were well planned. As an entrepreneurial residence, students needed to learn more about entrepreneurship and how to bring an idea to a realizable product/service.
Lucky for you, Velocity posts all their videos. I’ve shared them with you here
