Description

What We Do

We are Penn Innovators in Business (PIIB), a Penn student group that connects the brightest minds in different industries to provide insights and advice geared towards fellow undergraduates looking to venture into similar fields. In the past, we have interviewed John Steinberg (former BuzzFeed President), Joey Zwillinger (CEO of Allbirds), Ethan Brown (CEO of Beyond Meat), and more.

We strongly believe that one-on-one interactions and interviews are the best way to learn from others so we focus on creating top-notch interviews to provide an opportunity for the students to learn first-hand from our guests. Recently, we have partnered with Zoom Memes for Self Quaranteens, a 800k+ member Facebook group, to bring live-streamed interviews focusing on professional career growth. We also work in partnership with Wharton Executive Education to run a mentorship program every year. To be notified of our events and interview content, sign up for the listserv here. We're always looking for new innovators, so apply here by January 27th to see if you'd be a good fit for the team.

Everyone can join our listserv and join in on any interactive interviews we host.

However, to join our team, the time commitment will be around 2-4 hours/week in order to create consistent content and build our reach.
