Global entrepreneurs, local impact

Julien Denaes

In 2016, CU СÀ¶ÊÓÆµ welcomed Julien Denaes as one of its Global Entrepreneurs in Residence (GEiR), a program that embeds international, experienced entrepreneurs in the entrepreneurial ecosystem of the campus and the city.

In his year as a GEiR, Denaes, a native of Switzerland, mentored dozens of CU СÀ¶ÊÓÆµ students across a range of disciplines, developed innovative programming for the burgeoning Innovation & Entrepreneurship Initiative and launched his own company, Alpin.

GEiRs rotate through the program annually—Denaes has already finished his year— but their impact on СÀ¶ÊÓÆµâ€™s students and community will be long lasting.
