It’s time to prepare for Homecoming 2023! This year’s theme is Maroon Madness.
We welcome you to join us in the campus-wide treasure hunt. This event will kick off the homecoming celebration on November 6, 2023. The treasure hunt is a fantastic opportunity for students to visit your physical location as they race against others. All events are promoted on the Trojan Engage app (and on our socials @ualrsec), and the first clue will be released by viewing the app. Like last year, students will travel from location to location, collecting clues leading to the final prize.

The Venture Center is hosting a techstars_ Startup Weekend April 14-16, 2023. Startup Weekend is a 54-hour event where teams form around an idea and work together to develop it, build a real product, and get expert feedback from entrepreneurs. At the end of the weekend, each team will pitch their startup idea to a panel of judges who will select one winner that can win up to $2,000! All meals will be provided during this event.
This event is open to everyone; however students regardless of major or experience can attend at a discounted rate. If you’ve ever thought about starting your own business or working for a startup, this is the perfect opportunity for you. You’ll get real-world experience working on a project with other founders, business owners, and entrepreneurs. You’ll also be able to make connections early in your career that could help you land a job after graduation. Interested parties can find out more about StartUp Weekend at the following links. Please contact Pamela Reed at pamela.reed@venturecenter.co for more information.
Students can get 50% off their ticket when they use “NEWYEAR50” at checkout.
