Startup Bytes: Digital Brown Bag Lunch with Entrepreneurs

January 21, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Join the Ain Center for Startup Bytes, a digital brown bag lunch with entrepreneurs! The Ain Center invites folks to take a break from noon to 1 PM once a month to hear from local or alumni innovators and to engage with different topics in entrepreneurship.

This month, we will take a look at a few of the startups in the Rochester/Western New York region that are doing work in the mental health and wellness space. Panelists include:

  • Erin Halligan-Avery from ConcernCenter. ConcernCenter provides a prioritized list of support options to students (veterans and employees) through a customized resource tool.
  • Cody Semrau from BetterMynd. BetterMynd gives students access to virtual counseling from the privacy and convenience of their laptops and smartphones with sessions available during days, nights and weekends.
  • Lauren Lastauskas from GRYT Health. GRYT Health provides support to those who’ve been affected by a cancer diagnosis, including cancer patients, survivors, caregivers and researchers.

We are looking forward to learning more about these companies, the challenges they are facing today, and advice for those who may find themselves looking for guidance. Bring questions, there will be time for audience Q&A!

We welcome all to attend. Please register for updates and the recording. See you there!
