DUhatch connects enterprising students with mentors from faculty and industry, giving them office space, and facilitating business development to help solve the myriad problems a fledgling venture faces.

First DUhatch Drop-In

On Wednesday, October 11th, Taylor Mingos, the CEO and co-founder of Shoeboxed.com, stopped by DUhatch to enjoy pizza and beverages with the DUhatch teams during our first DUhatch drop-in. He shared the story of the founding of his company, the ideas that he had before he became successful and the struggles that young entrepreneurs in the tech sector will face. This drop-in event will be the first of many and marks the beginning of a new effort to connect the student businesses at DUhatch with experienced members of the Durham entrepreneurial community.
