Invent your Internship: How to Pitch For a Role And Get The Most Out Of Your Summer
Friday, April 30, 1:00 PM EST

Students, trainees, and fellows are invited to attend Invent your Internship: How to Pitch For a Role And Get The Most Out Of Your Summer, presented online as part of the Spring 2021 Blackstone LaunchPad College Entrepreneurship Speaker Series on Skills and Career Opportunities.

There are far more internship opportunities out there than just those listed on your university’s career center website. Sometimes though, you have to create your own! Justin Lokitz, Innovation Mentor & Co-founder at Accelab will speak about inventing your own college internship, creating your dream position, making the most of a summer job, and working in a startup environment in this session. Please contact our team at Innovate@utmb.edu for the link to register.

The LaunchPad Speaker Series is a new virtual Blackstone LaunchPad & Techstars network offering. Featuring leaders from LaunchPad partner organizations and campus networks, the Speaker Series will highlight successful and diverse entrepreneurs, executives, investors, and other influential stakeholders in the innovation economy. These individuals will share stories, skills, insights, inspiration, and critical lessons learned around entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship in an interactive online format. The LaunchPad Speaker Series is open to all 900,000+ students and staff in the LaunchPad network (select sessions may be available to a public audience)
