In my senior year of college, I worked with a team of six on a capstone project sponsored by Ivani, an energy technology start-up. The prompt was open-ended: create a new product for Ivani’s corporate partners in the construction and manufacturing sectors.

About the team.

We spent the first semester immersing ourselves in the types of problems encountered by Ivani's partners. After narrowing down our concept gallery and running business analysis on a select few proposals, the team and Ivani jointly selected a project to move forward with.

We built a functional prototype in the second semester and submitted the invention for patent review.
