PROVIDENCE, RI – April 10, 2013
TribalVision Founder and CEO, Chris Ciunci, was invited onto campus by Brown University Venture Labs to conduct a marketing workshop for its business teams this week. Founded in 1998, the Brown University Entrepreneurship Program accepts five undergraduate teams into the Venture Labs program each year- where student-entrepreneurs receive the mentorship and resources needed to help bring their ideas to fruition.
Chris was invited to speak to and mentor the teams regarding the marketing strategies that they need to embrace to help grow their ventures from startups to profitable entities. As a lifelong entrepreneur, Chris spoke about the real world lessons learned throughout his career. Upon completion of the workshop, Chris stated, “I was blown away by the business ideas in the room and think that all the teams have a strong chance of becoming viable, thriving and profitable businesses if they put in the sweat equity needed.” The ventures Chris advised ranged from mobile phone applications to three dimensional printing software, giving him the opportunity to speak about the unique marketing challenges that each endeavor faces. Upon completion of the workshop, Brown Venture Labs organizer, Viktoria Belberova, stated “It was great to hear Chris’ views about a holistic approach to marketing, his experience with founding TribalVision, and his quick intuition about how the teams should approach their marketing plans. With the help of Chris, our teams walked away with some practical marketing advice that they can begin using immediately.”
