Building a Community
Founders is a non-profit student entrepreneurship organization at the University of Illinois. We're a community focused on supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs - to do this, we host events and offer resources to students interested in creating a startup.
Having lots of startups at UIUC is great, but having lots of student entrepreneurs work together is better. We're in this for the long term - building upon the Urbana-Champaign entrepreneurship community is more sustainable and provides much more value. We believe that if you focus on the people, the results will come naturally.
The Founders Team is behind the curtain making it all happen. We want our members to succeed, so we maintain a strong culture and environment that educates, inspires, and motivates us. We are interdisciplinary, open minded, and innovative.
