Student entrepreneur Patricia Garcia has spent time on college campuses including Cal Berkeley, MIT, and the University of Southern California. As if textbooks and tuition weren't spendy enough, university-branded swag came with its own hefty price tag. So Garcia started unithrifts to create a platform where students can buy and sell their gently used college gear. Garcia says the startup is dedicated to driving accessibility, sustainability, and community.
When Next Gen HQ and Oracle for Startups challenged student entrepreneurs to come up with a business that would improve campus life, Garcia submitted unithrifts and won. Find out more about the startup and what makes high-achieving solopreneurs tick.
Recorded live at Startup Grind Global in Redwood City, CA.
