Debo Olaosebikan Starts Tech Company

Debo Olaosebikan ’06 is co-founder of Gigster, which connects start-up ideas with a vetted pool of coders and designers.
There’s a massive talent crunch in tech. It can be quite tough for a fledgling startup to attract great engineers, especially if they’re not near a hub city like San Francisco. Gigster could help entrepreneurs affordably develop a minimum viable product so they can get the funding and attention they need to build a company.
[…] Just go to Gigster’s site, instant message with a sales engineer, tell them what you want built, and in 10 minutes you get a guaranteed quote for what it will cost and how long it will take. Give Gigster the go-ahead, and it will manage an elite set of freelance coders and designers to build your product and give you status reports each week. Once you get your project back, Gigster will even maintain the code, and you can pay to add upgrades or new features.

Young Alumni Challenge!

IWU has a new challenge for us young alumni! Are you up for it?!

The university is hoping for a 2015 Participation Goal of 5,286 Donors (as of press time, we are at 4,625). A trustee has agreed to make a $2,500 gift for every young alumni class (1999-2014) who reaches 24% or better before July 31. This means that for every class that hits 24%, IWU will be able to award an additional $2,500 scholarship to a deserving student. Also, an additional $2,500 gift will be made for any class that reaches 30%.

All gifts count! Find out how the class of 2006 stacks up by visiting https://www.iwu.edu/giving/youngalumni.html
