Our last week of the program is always the best because we get to hang out in-person with all of our amazing founders, mentors, board members, and community. Thanks to VIPC | Virginia Innovation Partnership Corporation, Williams Mullen, Henrico Economic Development Authority and the Lighthouse Labs Board for hosting our founders over lunch and breakfast. There is so much more that we loved about in-person week, but here are a few shots of the folks our cohort got to hang out with!
