  <title><![CDATA[CREATE-X Announces 2022 Demo Day]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>On Thursday, August 25th, CREATE-X will host Demo Day at the historic Fox Theater from 5:00 p.m.&nbsp;to 7:00 p.m. The event will feature 90+ startups focusing on a range of business areas from highly caffeinated slushies to bioanalytical platform technologies.</p>

<p>The event is free and open to the public.</p>

<p>Demo Day is the culmination of Startup Launch, where Georgia Tech students and faculty members spend the summer bringing their startup to market. Participants attend lectures, keynote speakers, and 1:1/group sessions with industry leaders.</p>

<p>Startup Launch was established through CREATE-X, a Georgia Tech initiative devoted to instilling entrepreneurial confidence in students and empowering them to launch successful startups.</p>

<p>CREATE-X consists of three programmatic elements &ndash; LEARN-MAKE-LAUNCH &ndash; and Demo Day is a key part of LAUNCH.</p>

<p>The Startup Launch element of the program has launched 300+ startups, with portfolio companies collectively valued at over $1.9 billion.</p>

<p>&quot;Demo Day is a signature Georgia Tech event to showcase its most recent cohort of exceptional founders solving problems that impact us and businesses every day,&quot; says CREATE-X Interim Director Rahul Saxena. &ldquo;Solutions touch nearly every part of society, from farms to supply chains to virtual reality.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Demo Day will highlight the talent and hard work of students who participated in Startup Launch throughout the summer.&nbsp;</p>

         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
