Alan Braverman, co-founder of The Giant Pixel Corporation, moderated a panel discussion at his alma mater, The University of Illinois on October 24, 2014. The panel focused on entrepreneurship and touched on topics like the evolving attitude towards entrepreneurship in the Department of Computer Science, staying in Illinois versus moving to California to work in startups, and starting a company straight out of school versus working at a larger company to get some real world experience.
After the discussion, he received a Distinguished Service Award from the University of Illinois’ Computer Science Department.
John Pletz from ChicagoBusiness.com wrote a great article about Braverman and his time in Illinois.
