Public Interest Technology (PiTech) at Cornell Tech fosters the next generation of innovators, leaders, and researchers shaping technology to achieve positive societal outcomes.
The goal of the Visiting Practitioners program is to foster collaborations with tech leaders from a range of impact-oriented organizations, and engage in conversations around PiTech at Cornell Tech. ViPs engage with Cornell Tech students and other community members in multiple ways throughout the semester, giving talks, offering office hours, providing feedback on product and business ideas, pursuing their own capstone projects, and informing the direction of PiTech at Cornell Tech.
