About the event
We’ve designed Fish Tank to give students, young professionals, and aspiring innovators a taste of entrepreneurship and innovation. Work in teams to solve a wild problem with a crazy solution, build a prototype, and pitch your idea to our panel of judges.
This event is for everyone. You don’t need to be an entrepreneur or have any previous experience to take part. If you’re curious enough to give it a go, we’ll help you along the way.
Join us for one evening of innovation, collaboration, and friendly competition, with the chance to win some huge prizes. This is a first for YSPN and we want the room full.
