TALENT + OPPORTUNITY
Students + Startups is the bridge between top talent and career advancing opportunities in San Antonio.
Our Belief
An internship at a startup can profoundly impact one’s professional future, as well as give growing companies a huge boost in talent and capacity. San Antonio’s future economy depends on attracting and retaining top talent, and we can help.
By connecting companies directly with vetted applicants looking for work in the startup or small business world, we lower the cost and risk associated with hiring, incentivize more companies to participate and increase the potential for more young professionals to call San Antonio their home.
Our Story
Founded in 2016, Students + Startups was started in partnership between Trinity University, 80|20 Foundation and Geekdom. Since then, we have connected 422 candidates to 138 local startups and small businesses in San Antonio. Every year, we strive to attract more applicants and increase participating company partners, to continue to add value to the San Antonio economy and growing startup and small business community!
