Last week we had the chance to speak to the newest​ class of the @DYLNScholars about our story and how to make an impact at a young age. Demetrius and Bryce are alumni. DYLN put our foot in the door of Delaware's entrepreneurial ecosystem years before Wilminvest was a thought.

It was great talking to you there! The team heard from experts about where the real estate market in #WilmDE and the state of #Delaware is going, as well what's in the way of getting the city and state where it needs to be. Looking forward to overcoming these gaps together! xitter.cf/MikePurzycki/status/99…
Nice to see our friends from @Wilminvest and speak with their parents at the Delaware Developer’s Forum this afternoon. The Future of #WilmDE right here!! #ULIPHL #netDE

We were fortunate enough to participate in eFest, the nations largest undergraduate pitch competition. While we didn’t come out on top, we took home a significant amount in cash prizes. Getting closer to starting the pilot. Thank you to Dick Shultz for the competition!

The team was more than happy to be a part of the annual “I Have a Dream” Pitch Competition again this year, this time on the other side of the fence. In fact CEO Joel Amin was even a judge! Looking forward to the great things these young men and women will accomplish in our city.

That’s correct! This year will be our third year applying, every year our concept has been more defined than the next. Stick to the problem you want to solve and demonstrate how you have engaged the marketplace! xitter.cf/udhorn/status/95082658…

@Wilminvest is a prime example of how far a team can go with experience they’ve learned from Hen Hatch!
