Socrates

Background

Socrates is a platform that connects underprivileged youth with young new professionals to form mentorships that enable social change.

Our business goals

Help underprivileged youth navigate the difficult and often unclear connection between different undergraduate studies and the corresponding possible career paths.

The problem

Many underprivileged students lack access to working professionals in different industries limiting their understanding or exposure to particular careers.

What we built

2014 Winner of Summit Neo4J Challenge

A prototype for students to explore the connection between an area of study and the variety of corresponding job positions, with the ability to connect with mentors willing to provide guidance in that space.
