When the Rise of the Rest tour bus pulled up to Knight Hall Oct. 10 for the last stop on a 5-city road trip through the Midwest, Steve Case brought an enthusiastic team of startup cheerleaders to visit Wash U and the St. Louis innovation ecosystem. If you missed the “Fireside Chat” with Case, Steve Clemmons of the Atlantic, and Square co-founder Jim McKelvey, check out the photos, videos, and comments from the day on the Road Trip Journal.

Congratulations to SYNEK, winner of a $100,000 investment from Steve Case. And congrats to Olin EMBA alumna Alicia Herald, founder of MyEdMatch, who presented in the competition at TRex.
