Started at the University of Texas, Austin, 3DS has been organized at various universities
throughout the world. Past 3DS participants have launched over 16 technology based companies

neer to organize such an event on a university campus in the New England area.
This year, Brandeis 3DS started a new workshop series initiative, open to all students across
the university. The workshops ran during the month prior to the challenge and covered a variety
of topics ranging from Marketing to Financing for startups. The goal was to equip students with
essential knowledge that they must have if they are interested in joining in competing in the 3Ds
challenge and joining the startup world.
