Hello Undergrads,

Looking for a midday fall-themed snack on a sunny autumn afternoon? Want to
learn about some resources available to undergrads pursuing innovative
projects and ideas?

The Innovation Committee will be serving warm, seasonal classics such as
pumpkin pie and mulled apple cider on Friday 10/14 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m.
Join us to learn about the committee, tell us about your projects, and
share your ideas for how to seed, support, and scale innovation at MIT.
We'll be roaming with snacks around the Infinite and buildings 1-7 to
maximize our chances of meeting new people. Catch us if you can! Innovation
moves quickly, as do we.

In the meantime, we've collected some useful resources to further your
ideas and projects. Take a look below.

See you soon,

William Wu
On behalf of the UA Innovation Committee
