      LookUp.live's mission is to empower youth to find balance between their tech and real lives, inspire them to engage their peers and communities, and finally, through our startup incubator, provide support to activate their solutions and ideas with mentoring, scaffolding, and grants. We base our youth-centered model on three pillars: Discover, Incubate, and Scale. Through grant competitions, referrals, and entrepreneurship programs, we discover and funnel tech/non-tech ideas into our global incubator. Youth builders, innovators, artists, and mentors then collaborate virtually to refine ideas. LookUp’s program leads support and connect youth innovators to resources, peer thought-leaders, and change agents who can adapt scalable solutions in their communities. Show less

      Mindhood is a student led grassroots movement, started at Dartmouth College, to flip the current tech-addicted culture. College students raise awareness and engage with the world, foster authentic face-to-face communities, and become more connected. This in turn leads to more fulfilling relationships, clearer focus and attention, and more engagement in real life, creating happier and healthier "neighborhoods" or college communities. Mindhood engages students, faculty, and alumni in a collaborative mission to spread awareness about the impact of living in the digital age, and the power to change it. Show less
