We had a great time at Entrepreneur Day over at San Diego State University, showcasing our bettas and promoting our tropical fish store!
SDSU is known to create entrepreneurs who shake and move our local economy and this is the perfect event that allows fellow SDSU Aztec alumni, students and faculty to showcase their businesses to the entire school. Not only does this event bring in students and many school faculty to support student-run businesses but it attracts many local investors (especially VCs) and entrepreneurs alike to come and see the abilities these young entrepreneurs have when a great university such as San Diego State empowers these student entrepreneurs with!
Bernhard Schroeder and Alex DeNoble run a program called Lavin Venturestart, which enables many aspiring entrepreneurs to really get immersed into what it takes to run a business and getting the foundations set up so they can successfully have a better understanding of the business environment. Not only are they getting the connected with local business people who move and shake but each student entrepreneur is connected with a personal business mentor that gives them guidance and pointers, further inspiring each one to strive for success!
We had a great time giving tips and advice to aspiring fish hobbyist on SDSU's campus and were happy to see the excitement from each of these new betta fish owners!
Here are a couple shots from this week's event on Centennial Walkway right next to the new SDSU Student Union building (we were super busy and only snapped a handful of pictures).
