Jaheim Archibald has been accepted into the Blackstone LaunchPad Summer Fellowship 2023 cohort! Jaheim won in the Consumer Products and Services track for the 2022 Blackstone LaunchPad Ideas Competition at the campus level in the fall for his business, Acumen Technologies. It is a time management software. You might recall hearing about Acument Technologies during our most recent Stewardship Council meeting. Jaheim has been working with our graphic designer, Osmar Cortez, to create a brand identity.

During the Fellowship, up to 50 student founders from BLP network schools across the country will be awarded $5,000 in prize money to support their time working on advancing their technology ventures. The Fellowship is largely self-driven but will include weekly skill-development workshops, goal setting and peer and professional networking opportunities.
