Berkeley Innovation

📣Calling all UC Berkeley designers!📣
​🛠️ In partnership with Vector, Berkeley Innovation is hosting a one-day designathon for UC Berkeley designers to show off their creativity, improve their human-centered design skills, win prizes, and learn from industry professionals!
​🗣️ All designers will be split into teams of 3-5. These can be predetermined before the event (as long as you list each other on the RSVP form), or opt in to be randomly sorted into a team.
​🍴Pizza will be provided (with free energy drinks and other snacks/refreshments too)!
​🏆 Participants will get free access to Vector for one month and free swag! Winners will receive a lifetime discount for the platform, and the top three teams will receive cash prizes and interview opportunities for internships or full-time roles (in engineering, product, or GTM) at Vector!
​‼️ The deadline to RSVP for the event is Friday, 4/17! Please reach out to Mikaela or Nicholas ([email protected] or [email protected]) if you have any questions!

it’s a bird 🦅 it’s a plane ✈️ it’s a LANDY‼️🍊

Landy is currently a junior studying EECS and is a PM this semester! Check out their Notion page to sign up for a coffee chat and come to URM Night tonight to learn more about our URM communities in BI! 🍊💫

“Being URM means operating in spaces that weren’t designed with people like me in mind, while still finding ways to succeed and create space for others. It’s both a challenge and responsibility I carry with intention. My background has made me more empathetic and user driven. Naturally, I’ll design for accessibility and clarity because I’ve lived it. It’s taught me to question assumptions, design incisively, and build solutions that will help groups often misinterpreted.”

We’re excited to spotlight one of our Fall 2025 projects, featuring our client, 1951 Coffee Company ☕️
