Engage Internship Program Design + Communication Analyst About Engage

Engage is a first-of-its-kind enterprise venture platform that dramatically accelerates startup growth and corporate innovation and is administered by the Enterprise Innovation Institute at Georgia Tech. 14 leading corporations –

Informed by insights derived from corporate partners and cross-industry trends, we invest in startups from around the world.
