“SUMMIT is a great program to kick-start your business and push it further faster. Not only did you learn to pitch and get your pitch perfected you also get to meet awesome people who could end up being mentors for your company, or investors. I feel well equipped and ready to go out and take on new challenges. I would recommended it to everyone and anyone. It’s a great program to have you go into and have your business move forward fast.”
— Godfrey Joekumar, SUMMIT 2016

“I would recommend this program to anyone who was interested in starting their own business, organization, non-profit – anything that is going to help the world move forward…I had the passion, enthusiasm and energy but I needed the sustainability and the business side of things, and I got those, and I am very thankful.”
—Samantha Franklin, SUMMIT 2016
