Meet our 2020 Fall LaunchPad Fellows

For more than a decade the Blackstone LaunchPad & Techstars network has sought to help college students build next generation companies and careers.

For more than a decade the Blackstone LaunchPad & Techstars network has sought to help college students build next generation companies and careers. In recent years, we’ve been inspired by a growing number of young entrepreneurs from our network who are motivated to make a lasting difference in the world. For that reason, in our second offering of the LaunchPad Fellowship, we’re pleased to be focusing on supporting Social Impact student entrepreneurs.

These 40 impressive founders are starting businesses and nonprofit organizations addressing a host of issues in areas like healthcare and education, the environment, and civic engagement. They see injustices or inequality, and are compelled to take action. In times like these, we all need the courage these students exhibit to take a risk and do what is right.
