Swartz in the City

The Swartz in the City speaker series is a unique opportunity for CMU startup founders to present, network, and engage with alumni from many IVY league schools who are a part of the Pittsburgh network. At these events CMU student and alumni founders showcase the incredibly innovations they are building at their startups to members of the AHYP Club in downtown Pittsburgh. 

This initiative was started and currently led by a good partner of the CMU Swartz Center, Donald Bonk. Donald was instrumental in establishing and continuing to organize the series in partnership with the AHYP Club. A special thanks to both Donald and the AHYP Club for their support of this event series.
