Description

Join us for an Open House at the Pava Marie LaPere Center for Entrepreneurship, the hub for student innovation at Johns Hopkins University. This is your chance to explore our accelerator programs, meet the team behind them, and see how we help student founders turn ambitious ideas into real ventures.

Whether you're searching for startup funding, looking to expand your network, or curious about how we partner with student groups and university programs, this event offers a front-row seat to the Johns Hopkins entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Come for the complimentary pizza, stay for the connections. You'll meet fellow student entrepreneurs, connect with campus and community partners, and leave with a clearer path forward.

Special guests include Hopstone Capital, HopHacks, and O'Shaughnessy Ventures—who will be awarding $100,000 in funding this spring—plus additional partners shaping the future of student entrepreneurship.

Are you a student group/organization, Johns Hopkins organization, or department that wants to have a table at our widely attended Open House event? If so, please fill out this short form.
