Fire Alarms and Startup Dreams: Lessons from My MBET Journey
I began my career in Advertising and Marketing Communications, drawing on a foundation in Visual Arts and Graphic Design. Thirteen years ago, I founded Bedouin, a design consultancy dedicated to creatively addressing the evolving needs of clients across startups, enterprises, and government. This path led me into the tech ecosystem, where I launched two startups. While they showed early signs of traction, they ultimately didn’t succeed because I lacked the foundational knowledge needed to build a successful startup.
Enterprise Co-op Spring 2024 Product Video Showcase Winners
As we wrap up the Spring 2024 term, we’re thrilled to celebrate the achievements of our Enterprise Co-op (E Co-op) students in the recent Product Video Showcase Competition. This competition was designed to spotlight the incredible work done by our students during their work term, and the results were nothing short of spectacular.
The challenge was clear: create a compelling 90-second video that showcases a product or service developed during the work term. Unlike startup pitches, the focus was on illustrating the product’s features and how it can be used by potential customers. The goal was to produce a video that could serve as an ongoing piece of marketing content for social media campaigns and other promotional efforts.
Connecting Paths: Embracing Community in my MBET Experience
Hey there! I’m Munib Nasir, and I’ve always been passionate about helping and inspiring others. Before diving into the Master of Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology (MBET) program at the Conrad School of Entrepreneurship and Business, my journey has been quite eclectic. Previously, I worked as a full-time content creator on the streaming platforms Twitch and YouTube. This allowed me to share my love for gaming and life in a growing community. Along the way, I also gathered experience working in the nonprofit sector and in marketing. Little did I know, the MBET program would be the place where all these threads of my life would weave together into something amazing.
