Time to make some connections! We want to help the bright, innovative students from our local colleges and universities discover the rich variety of employers located in upstate New York. As a community that particularly values innovation and entrepreneurship, we're going to have some fun together in the process!

Contest: Students at all regional colleges were invited to enter a contest for the most innovative ideas for a product or service. The competition concludes on February 5th with an exhibition at which the students present their ideas to the general public in a trade show style environment. They are vying for five $750 cash prizes.

Local companies offered to spend 1-2 hours discussing a Bright Idea with a local college student or student team. They enjoyed meeting a talented prospective employee as they helped students to discover that there are more than 3-4 big name companies in Rochester! (More info to your left.)

We thank these companies for in-kind sponsorship donations!
