Startup Weekend is a grassroots movement that can be found in over
200 cities around the world. People are
coming together for weekend long workshops to pitch ideas, form teams, and
start companies. Columbia hosted a
Startup Weekend event from Friday, September 28 through Sunday, September
30.
Two Douglass High School Students,
A’ijania Christian and Frits Berends, presented their idea for a new diner with
electronic ordering at dining tables.
Frits, also a CACC IT Internship student, and A’ijania wowed the judges
with their concept and were awarded the “Young Entrepreneurs Award.” Congratulations to both of these enterprising
young leaders!
