YC&E x Yale Housing had a fantastic time at Yale Staff Appreciation Day yesterday! 🎉

A big thank you for making us feel appreciated, valued, and proud to be part of the Yale community. 💙

2,500+ innovators. 3 days. 6 venues. One incredible event.

The Yale Innovation Summit brought together founders, investors, researchers, students, and industry leaders for inspiring conversations, thought-provoking panels, and meaningful connections across campus.

From SOM and the Yale Science Building to the Peabody Museum, Kline 14, Kroon Hall, and Steep Café, it was an honor for YC&E to help support an event where ideas, partnerships, and future opportunities took shape. 💡🤝
