Technology has the potential to help solve many problems. Today technology helps makes a lot of tasks easier, but these solutions are not for everyone & don't generally tackle the toughest problems New Yorkers face.
Our goal for the Fellowship is to create products & services that help solve real problems our communities face. Tech builders - designers, product managers & engineers - & experts participate in workshops, create teams, & work directly alongside the community to design & build new products & services.
Fellows spend two months doing intensive, community-centric research to scope & define potential solutions. They then have another two months to build, test, & launch their ideas. Past Fellows have built venture-backed companies, tech-enabled nonprofits, open source projects, & more.
We're looking for potential Fellows who are ruthlessly dedicated to addressing the most pressing issues for low-income communities in NYC, both getting an idea off the ground & sustaining it long-term.
Come join us to learn about the Blue Ridge Lab's (BRL) Fellowship Program. We will be going over a brief informational presentation, have BRL alumni share their experience & have Q&A & networking following the session.
5PM - Arrival
5:30-7:30PM - Informational Presentation
Registered attendees are free to work from Blue Ridge Labs for the day before the session.
Hosted by Blue Ridge Labs@Robin Hood
