Serendipity @IDEA Northeastern

We're not doing another networking event.

It's a curated experience that brings together builders, founders, and entrepreneurs — designed to connect you with exactly the right people to build with.

What this is

Serendipity brings together:

Undergraduate and graduate students across technical and non-technical backgrounds

Founders, entrepreneurs, and builders who are curious, ambitious, and driven to solve real problems

Instead of random conversations, you'll be matched in advance based on your interests, skills, and goals. Each participant will receive 2–3 targeted people to meet — so you walk in already knowing who you should talk to.

What you can get out of it

Potential co-founders or collaborators

Exposure to new industries and problem spaces

High-quality conversations (not small talk)
