Techfair at Berkeley

MDB is a vibrant, inclusive community of student engineers seeking to drive change within and outside of Berkeley. Together, we’re a group of devs who are passionate about inspiring — and then building — the tech behind the next unicorn. Some of us are founders — others are product designers, developers, architects, visionaries. As one of Berkeley’s largest engineering organizations, our engineering-first approach and our drive to tackle the problems in the world around us offer us a unique angle in the Berkeley startup ecosystem.
