Breakthrough Demo Day
Breakthrough is Stanford’s first inter-university Demo Day for the top student founders across the country.
Since our first cohort, our companies have raised more than $10 million in venture capital. Some of these success stories include Antoni Soledad, who raised $2.5 million for his robotics AI startup, and Jodi Anderson, who won the 2025 NBA All-Star Pitch Competition.
This year, we have chosen the top 20 startups from Stanford, MIT, Harvard, Oxford, and more who are building the next generation of agentic AI, robotics, healthcare, and semiconductor startups. Our founders are award-winning AI researchers, veterans, professors, PhDs, doctors, and lawyers.
Come and meet the next generation of breakout companies on Monday, May 19 at Stanford University. This event is free to attend, and catered dinner will be provided.
