He also previews the upcoming Startup Summit, where aspiring entrepreneurs can pitch ideas, connect with investors, and compete for significant prize money.Later, we meet Aiden McLean, the E-Center’s new Program Director, who discusses how Venture Catalysts helps students from all majors develop entrepreneurial mindsets, test ideas, build business plans, and connect with mentors and collaborators.
