[RE]MIX

Entrepreneurship Summit

[RE]MIX, created and led by Denisonians, is designed to help entrepreneurial alumni and students in their journey to learn, grow, and achieve great things. They re-connect, re-imagine, and re-fuel as they discover new ideas, learn from their peers and celebrate the Denison entrepreneurial ethos. 

Creators, visionaries, and thought leaders from across fields and industries provide the foundation. Interactive sessions and workshops build on that framework.
