Computing majors and Raikes School students Samuel Ingledue, Seth Daup, Tristan Curd, and Bridget Peterkin were members of three Husker entrepreneur teams awarded monetary prizes last week in the first-ever Nebraska Governor’s New Venture Competition.
The competition was open to any student enrolled in college. Nineteen teams submitted proposals and later pitched their ideas virtually to a panel of judges. First place and $20,000 went to Samuel Ingledue (software engineering) and Tan Phan for their company Privy AI. Second place and $15,000 went to Brooke Bode and Seth Daup (computer engineering) for their company, Cattle Kettle, for stock tank management. Third place and $10,000 went to Bridget Peterkin (computer science) and Tristan Curd (computer science) for Dyslexio, a dyslexia accessibility tool.
