Today, MSSE students and alumni had the chance to go on an exclusive private tour of Los Angeles County Museum of Art’s newest wing, featuring the David Geffen collection, before it even opens to the public. Huge thank you to Jennifer Walske for organizing such a special experience. There’s something about stepping outside the classroom and into spaces where culture, creativity, and storytelling come to life. And to top it off, we wrapped up our “Field Trip Friday” with a stop at Erewhon, because, of course, only in LA would there be an Erewhon at a museum 😂 Thank you Lauren Bergman for the fantastic tour!

This summer, the MSSE Student Association brought students and alumni together for a special visit to SmartGateVC at Hero House! 🚀 Our community had the opportunity to meet with the SmartGate team and founders from its portfolio companies, gaining firsthand insight into venture capital and the realities of building a startup. We learned how venture capital firms support early-stage companies through funding, guidance, connections, and resources. The founders also shared honest perspectives on growing a business, building the right team, navigating uncertainty, and learning throughout the process. A huge thank-you to the SmartGateVC team and founders for welcoming us, sharing your experiences so openly, and giving our community a closer look at the startup ecosystem. The MSSE Student Association is proud to create opportunities for students and alumni to connect classroom learning with the people and organizations shaping entrepreneurship and social impact. We look forward to bringing our community together for more experiences like this! ✨
