TYE Launch Event Recap... What a Night!

Thanks to the 75+ attendees who showed up last night: it was a fantastic showing from a phenomenal crowd. Throughout the day, we'll post a full recap of the event. We promised you that we would post materials and pictures on the blog, so let us know if you have any trouble accessing the content once it is posted.

Below is the introductory presentation. As you may remember, Rajeev gave us a great overview and background into the program. Feel free to email any one of the co-chairs to get more information.

In case you didn't receive a handout, we have provided a digital copy of the brochure below. Most of this information can be found throughout the blog, but please let us know if you have any questions.


As you know, we also heard from the founder of Paragon Lake, a Massachusetts-based startup focusing on the custom jewelry market. Imagine if you could design your own ring and view a 3D model before buying it. Now you can! Check out the 3D model YouTube video below for a sample demonstration of what Paragon Lake wants to bring to customers.



Matt also offered us an interesting story about entrepreneurship. Three men are sitting on a bench and a fly lands on each of their shoulders. They all react differently. The first waves it away, the second brushes it off, and the third eats it...! Another fly comes along, but this time the entrepreneur of the group snags the fly and offers to sell it to the one who previously ate the other one. The point of the story: an entrepreneurs finds opportunity in every situation.

Here is another video of the Paragon Lake virtual showcase:
