Launch is a free New Memphis program that connects college students with the networks and professional opportunities that will inspire them to launch meaningful careers in Memphis. Through Launch, we introduce college students to the dynamic community of local employers while helping students learn to navigate the workplace, build networks, develop professional skills, and plot their career. 

​

How We Do It:

​

CONNECT STUDENTS TO MEMPHIS EMPLOYERS

By hosting regular professional development and networking opportunities in partnership with local employers, we are helping to bridge the gap between students and the business community.

​​​

BUILD PROFESSIONAL SKILLS FOR STUDENTS

Through Accelerate, we connect students to resources and people that help them build the professionals skills necessary for success in an internship and success in the workforce upon graduation.

​

INTRODUCE STUDENTS TO THE BLUFF CITY

Our free events happen at the hottest locations all around town to help students experience new neighborhoods outside of campus and to find their fit in Memphis.
