About this event

Closing the gap between academia and the VC ecosystem. This year, with trivia.

Grad

Connect is back! This year, Front Row Ventures and Box

One Ventures are trading panels and roundtables for a trivia night. Grad students, founders and investors will team up over questions on startups, science and Montreal, then stay to keep the conversation going.

🎲 How it works

Teams are randomized when you arrive, so you’ll be playing alongside grad students, founders and investors you haven’t met. Over 4 to 5 rounds we’ll cover startups, research and Nobel history, Montreal, and pop culture. There’s a live scoreboard all night, and the winning team takes home an FRV × Box

One swag bag.
