What we are building, and where it stands.

Mission, brand, and website

Mission and vision decided and proofed. This site is live on the BYU domain, with the proposal and network forms writing to our own database.

Claude Architect certification

The cohort certifies on the frontier agent tooling we build with. Leadership first, then out to the wider roster.

Advisory board

Senior advisors across AI, venture, and industry, recruited to advise the program rather than to decorate a page.

9 confirmed

Founding partners

Organizations committing project work, mentorship, and access to the cohort.

Reaching the BYU Marriott cohort directly

Meeting MBAs where they already are, in the channels the school already runs, rather than waiting for them to find the program.

The network

Alumni, faculty, founders, and builders who want the digest, the events, or first access to the cohort when they are hiring.

149 people in the network

Marketing and LinkedIn

Building the program's presence across BYU Marriott and the wider AI and venture community.

Client project pipeline

Scoping inbound work from this site and matching each project to a velocity pod. First engagements are being scoped now.

Launch party

The public launch, bringing the network, the advisory board, and the founding partners into one room.

MBA case competition

A low-stakes AI case competition for BYU MBAs. It builds the culture and surfaces the builders worth recruiting.

Competitive product competition

A high-stakes AI product competition with a real judging panel and partner sponsors.

School-wide hackathon

BYU-wide and cross-disciplinary. Mixed teams shipping something that runs, in a weekend.

Conference

Speakers, demos, and a recruiting showcase. Whether it runs in the fall alone or in both semesters is still open.
