2017 was an eventful year for Return On Science! The biggest change in 2017 was the formation of Momentum, our fifth investment committee. Momentum is a student-led investment committee with the majority of the projects emerging from student driven ideas. We are excited to be able to provide critical guidance and support a new generation of entrepreneurs. All five Investment Committees are continuously evolving and 2017 was no exception to this. We would like to thank all committee members for their excellent contribution in 2017. A special thanks to those committee members that retired in 2017 and a warm welcome to the new faces that joined us at Return On Science, we are excited that they bring with them some new perspectives with their contributions. Return On Science supports numerous student entrepreneurship programmes at the University of Auckland, including the Velocity 100k Challenge. We have been delighted to see such enthusiasm for entrepreneurship in the student body. The Return On Science team has also had some changes, saying goodbye to the old faces and welcoming in the new.
What a year!
