Tech@NYU is a student-led entrepreneurship club at NYU that thinks students need to build stuff. Lots of stuff. Sitting around and talking about the stuff doesn't count, winning contests with the stuff doesn't count, only shipping the stuff counts.
Ship often. Ship lousy stuff, but ship. Ship constantly.
-Seth Godin
This is a list of the stuff Tech@NYU members and alumni have shipped.

Tech@NYU wants students to build stuff together. It takes a lot of scars, experience, and bad ideas to finally get to a great product, so Tech@NYU is like a big sandbox - a place for experimentation, play, and, well, shipping.
We do a lot of events too - monthly DemoDays where we show off our work, weekly HackDays where we learn together, and semiannual Startup Weeks where we listen to some big-name speakers.
If you're a student in New York City that's interested in the intersection of startups, entrepreneurship, coding, art and design - we want you to join us.
If you're an NYC startup looking to give back to the student community, we also want to find ways you can help.
