Alum Ty Dunn (CogSci '19) has never feared hearing 'no'.
Whether it was asking Dan Gilbert to borrow his helicopter or having his startup accepted to Y-Combinator, his 'why not' mentality has spurred opportunity.
One opportunity he seized was to launch an agentic AI startup.
That company (Continue) was launched in 2022, in Y-Combinator in '23, and acquired by Cursor/SpaceX in '26.
This Friday Ty will unpack ...
+What students need to know about agentic AI
+How to launch/grow a startup
+What to know to ready your company to be acquired
All are welcome to join us in Stamps Auditorium (in the Walgreen Drama Center) on North Campus this Friday from 11:30a - 12:30p ET.
