NewsNUvention: Web + Media Winter 2015 Pitches
More than 60 students across 11 teams capped off an intense first quarter of NUvention: Web + Media on Tuesday, March 10, 2015. Pitching to their classmates, faculty team and Advisory Board, teams demo’d apps with a range of features—from safer cab transport to more collaborative patient care to improved social bar deals. Advisory Board members proffered feedback to all of the teams, giving them plenty to think about as they head into the latter half of the course.
Spring quarter will see some teams pivot, and all buckle down to develop monetization strategies before May, when they each launch their apps. Check out tweets from their midpoint presentations below.
