"MEPC was a truly challenging new experience that helped push me past my knowledge as an engineer, and really take my first steps as an entrepreneur."​

- By me

"This [workshop] has been the single, most valuable hour I've ever spent at USC. I've learned so much about what it takes to launch a company [..]"​​

- By me

"As an undergrad, I actually did a business degree with an entrepreneurship concentration. That was good, but this competition took me from theoretical knowledge to actually launching a venture. This single program could have easily been a minor in entrepreneurship, and in fact is likely more valuable than any course offerings we have here at USC.”​

- By me

"MFC provided the perfect launch pad for Impatico. Through exceptional mentorship and strategic workshops, the program significantly improved our fundraising readiness and helped us secure critical organizational partnerships to kick off our pilot. I highly recommend it to any USC founder!"​
