The Student Founder Journey, a season of episodes presented by the Keenan Center for Entrepreneurship, follows the bold entrepreneurial pursuits of students and young alumni at The Ohio State University. In this episode, we are joined by Yasmeen Quadri, founder of ServUS.

ServUS is part of the first-ever President’s Buckeye Accelerator. Six student ventures were chosen for the year-long accelerator to advance their startup for launch with a $50,000 award.  

ServUS is developing a mobile web app as a cost-reducing one stop platform for universities to help students implement socially innovative projects, for service organizations to incentivize and manage their student recruits, and for students to explore service opportunities that improve their wellness and build translational skills that the world needs for a sustainable 2050. 

In this episode, Quadri discusses how the idea for ServUS came to fruition and the process of building resiliency within her team and navigating the student experience as a founder. The episode is hosted by Jack Considine, an undergraduate student in the Fisher College of Business.
