Our Student Founders

Here’s what some of them have to say

Acceler8 by BE was an incredible experience for me. I went from not knowing how to run a startup to now being an established brand and making the right connections to grow the business. The speakers and my mentor provided me with valuable feedback to work on. I loved the experience and I'm looking forward to seeing the next gen of startups!

Billy Huang

Founder @ Elm Park Restring 

I cannot recommend getting involved with BE enough. It provided us with highly valuable information and connections which have proven instrumental in the development of Framesports. Miguel and the team did a fantastic job.

Lachlan McGrigor

Co-Founder @ Framesports.ai

I’ve met many peers our age who are passionate, ambitious, and always willing to learn. Being in such an environment not only boosted my ambition to keep creating new ideas but also provided a great platform for exchanging ideas and receiving feedback. BE connected me with numerous resources, such as pairing us with mentors and having speakers every week on different topics.
