Social innovators and creators of the +Impact Studio are making waves in the wider Ross community as two venture teams, CliMates and Grow Together (G2G), earned entrepreneurial recognition in the past weeks. In December alone, CliMates received 2nd place in the +Tech Innovation Jam; an interdisciplinary 6-week competition focused on demonstrating technical competency and mastery to thrive or pivot in the tech industry. Grow Together advanced as semifinalists in the Michigan Business Challenge (MBC) — Seigle Impact Track. This campus-wide competition awards cash prizes totaling over $100,000 to the most compelling business plans that deliver social and/or environmental impact.
