@sawyerrobbinss I'd have to say Nick Rellas was one of the most memorable speakers for me! His advice on being able to tell your story has stuck with me throughout this semester. #BCSTT

@ademilt30 This is a great idea that I'll definitely show my CS major friends! #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

@sawyerrobbinss This is awesome! I hope we can spread more awareness so women in need of birth control can access The Pill Club. #BCSTT

I wonder how loyal Peloton customers will remain after the safety of their treadmills have been compromised! #BCSTT

Facebook plans to launch a new feature that allows users to connect with their neighborhood or nearby neighborhoods. Although it seems like an interesting idea, I feel like these groups already exist and may be somewhat repetitive. #BCSTT

@ademilt30 I definitely think experience with age is a big plus as a founder. However, because an entrepreneur's journey is different and full of uncertainties for each person, I think that in the end age will not be a defining factor in terms of success! #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

@EScaccino I agree! I also think another city worth mentioning is Tulsa, OK. Even though Tulsa is a smaller city, they definitely have a growing entrepreneurial spirit there! #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

@HermOlivia @profkane I agree! I loved that she talked about privilege and how some people cannot afford to be risk takers in the way that others can. #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

Wow, absolutely loved the Margaret Stewart talk just now. Ever since we watched her Ted Talk for class, I have been so excited to meet her and she definitely did not disappoint. What a great zoom to finish off our semester! #BCSTT

@reshamjariwala This is so cool! I hope to see this smart apparel be introduced in the near future. But I also wonder how this might affect fast fashion and the fashion industry as a whole? #BCSTT

@ademilt30 So crazy to see how all the different ways AI can help people are being demonstrated in this project #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

This closely relates with one of my earlier blogs on how AI can help the elderly in so many ways. It's nice to see how other companies are approaching this issue as well. #BCSTT

Really enjoyed the Kristie Dickinson talk and her positive energy just now. It was great to hear her perspective on Apple work culture and that Apple never creates tools that can be used for evil! #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

@helenofagan @ABC7Chicago It is so nice to see Google Maps taking steps to reduce their carbon footprint and give users the option drive on "greener" route as opposed to the fastest route. I am excited to try this out when I use Google Maps! #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

@dongyeonlee5 This is so cool. Congrats again on creating Sellege! #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

@QuinnSheehan61 I've noticed this a lot over the past few weeks. Hopefully Uber can tackle this issue before it starts hurting their business and customer satisfaction. #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

Definitely recommend this movie for anyone who likes thrillers that keep you thinking the whole time! Tenet uses some really interesting futuristic technology that allows for time inversion, or objects/people being able to travel back in time. #BCSTT

[New York Times Arts @nytimesarts]

“Tenet” wins best visual effects at the #Oscars. In the film, time inversion poses a civilization-annihilating threat. https://t.co/vwaZTT92BM

Super exciting to see Klaviyo being praised since we talked with them a few weeks ago! #BCSTT

[TechCrunch @TechCrunch]

Klaviyo has achieved an unusual level of excitement and loyalty among marketers despite its youthful history

@sawyerrobbinss This is a great marketing strategy by engaging with consumers in a fun and personalized way. These Peloton customers probably feel more loyalty to the company now without realizing it! #BCSTT

[Allison Yu @allyyu47]

@JacksonCGoodman Although I believe Netflix will continue as the leader in this industry, it's pretty shocking to see Disney plus's impact and growth over such little time. #BCSTT
