\n
\u201can immersive experience in the world of entrepreneurship that included visits to four companies and hearing from several founders and industry experts about their career paths, including successes and failures. Overall, it was a fantastic learning experience about careers outside academia and provided an opportunity to connect with ambitious young professionals with shared interests.\u201d<\/h6>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As participants in Enventure, a nonprofit organization that\u00a0supports life science innovators and provides career development opportunities to advanced-degree candidates, Carlo and Travis were provided the means to apply for the Ignite Trek.
