Rithvik Venna ’15

Co-Founder and COO, OROS Apparel

B.S. Zoology Michael and Rithvik both hoped to continue their education to become doctors after completing their zoology degrees. But a love for outdoor adventure and an aversion to bulky outerwear led them to a question: What if their pre-med lab experiments with NASA technology could be used to make a warmer, more flexible jacket? They partnered with Miami’s nationally ranked Institute for Entrepreneurship to help them connect the dots. With a pipeline to Miami know-how, they’re now co-owners of a thriving startup.
