Description
The Berkeley Chamber, with support from the Berkeley Startup Cluster and City of Berkeley's Office of Economic Development (OED), will be hosting a spinoff to our successful, long-running event, the Berkeley Visionary Awards.
The Berkeley Visionary Lab event series is meant to create regular opportunities for our city’s leading entrepreneurs and innovators to interact with elected officials, other local businesses, and the broader Berkeley community.
For this event, "Startups Every Berkeleyan Should Know," we will hear from Berkeley startup leaders:
-
Christelle Rohaut of Hiven, an app that promotes neighborhood co-working by allowing residents to post their homes as de facto coworking spaces for nominal hourly or monthly fees. Hiven was founded to achieve positive social impacts and improve community livelihood through the integration of co-working spaces directly into neighborhoods.
-
Eugine Chung of Enuma, a company devoted to creating exceptional and engaging learning experiences for ALL children, especially underserved learners, around the globe. Their products, Todo Math, is an award-winning math app, and Kitkit School is a comprehensive child-centered early learning suite application.
-
Jason Haight of Gig Car Share, a car sharing service that operates across much of the SF Bay Area. Gig gives you the flexibility to pick up and drop off in different locations, getting you from here to there with room for your friends. The company operates using only Toyota Prius Hybrid vehicles with rooftop bike racks and features one-way point-to-point rentals.
We are happy to announce that City of Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin will be joining us, as well as other elected officials.
