Description

IDEA was founded in 2010, the same year I arrived at Northeastern. It piqued my interest right away. I’m good friends with Chris Wolfel, who was IDEA’s CEO two years ago. Additionally, over the past year as president of SGA, I worked alongside IDEA’s previous CEO Max Kaye and attended many events involving IDEA. I originally approached IDEA about creating my own venture, and then this opportunity to become CEO presented itself.

Founded in 1898, Northeastern is a global, experiential, research university built on a tradition of engagement with the world, creating a distinctive approach to education and research. The university offers a comprehensive range of undergraduate and graduate programs leading to degrees through the doctorate in nine colleges and schools, and select advanced degrees at graduate campuses in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Seattle.

June 18, 2014 - Biology major Lena King, S'15, is on co-op with Best Bees Company, which was founded by Noah Wilson-Rich, S'05, in 2010.

We’re working as a team to develop our yearlong vision as well as our specific goals for the coming semester. IDEA has already developed a wide range of services, including non-equity funding, mentoring, coaching, and other resources. Overall, everything that we do this year needs to be focused on our core mission: to educate entrepreneurs and help launch successful business.
