@AashniSShah There is a fun Shedd Aquarium which I totally recommend! Also, if your friend likes crazy adventures, there is an observation deck in the John Hancock building with a tilting adventure from the 100th floor I believe. I have done both!

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

@STEMpreneurlife This is so true!

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

@mech_alina Definitely smarter for an early stage founder!

Kicked off this weekend with 2 hours of #StardewValley game in the co-op setting with split screen with my husband. It transported us to our own cornucopia farm! Have you tried out this game in a co-op mode? #NintendoSwitch #videogames #gamers

7 years ago, I met with @satyanadella at an event. I was a college student then & I was pumped to see him as the CEO of #Microsoft because he is an alumni from @MAHE_Manipal, the same college where I just graduated from. Today, I am excited once again to see him as the Chairman!

Remember that I wrote about reading the book 'Evil By Design written by Chris Nodder @uxgrump last weekend? Guess what, I found a session organized by @uxpaseattle on 'Persuasive UX' led by Chris himself. This is happening tomorrow! https://t.co/VV2EdOEiYW

I spend a big amount of my time reading during the weekends. It helps me re-think product decisions and also come up with new ideas which I would like to test out. This weekend, I am reading - 'Evil By Design' written by Chris Nodder

Have you ever believed in something so much that it made you laugh as well as cry, excited as well as disappointed, hungry for more as well as also satisfied? That's the life of a Founder! #startuplife #femalefounders

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

@AlessandraEsse There should be an option for the attendees of the meeting to ring a bell!

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

I've heard that finding a #cofounder is very similar to dating. What advice would you give a #solofounder as she starts her quest to find a potential co-founder? Any tips, tricks, or words of wisdom? #femalefounder #startuplife #nextstep

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

And that's a wrap to #MeetOurFund! 2 days of action meeting with so many VCs in one place. Thank you @inside for organizing this & @Jason @MichaelTant3 for being amazing hosts. And 👏👏 to sponsors @justcall_io @BurnRate_io @Electric_AI @getclearco. #fundraise #startup

@colibrigia @bookofthemonth @AlexMichaelides It's quite interesting! You pay a monthly subscription fee and you can choose from a pool of books they have. They shortlist books of the month but you can choose from their big list as well. They also have new books which are just released. + book club and an app (fiction only)

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

For all the avid readers, have you tried @bookofthemonth yet? I just got my first box and I can't wait to get off work and read @AlexMichaelides's new book released this month #TheMaidens. I'm a big fan after I read his first book #TheSilentPatient

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

@STEMpreneurlife @inside @Jason Lorena, there is a line up of investors for tomorrow as well!

[Swati Priyam @spriyam_cmu]

Ever seen Investors pitch to Founders? @inside has been able to achieve something which I wouldn't have imagined to be the new way to meet with investors & learn about them! @Jason #MeetOurFund

If you're looking to measure the impact your work is creating, I highly recommend using the Outcome Framework - the idea is simple - For you to reach your 1 year impact (X), break it down to several interim outcomes (A, B, C, D) & then ensure that A+B+C+D = X #learninginpublic

Attended an inspiring talk on storytelling by @mirolatunji 👏👏organized by @startupsforall
Learnt about the 3 key parts of effective storytelling
Ethos - Your credibility & credentials (ethic)
Logos - Statistics, facts & data (logic)
Pathos (my favorite) - your emotional hook
