Washington Technology Industry Association Names inCampus "Best Consumer Product"

Last week at the WSTIA's "Web 2.0 & Beyond!: Unmasking the Future" event, inCampus took home honors in the category "best consumer product." Hundreds of software and internet professionals --along with WSTIA global partners Davis Wright Tremaine LLP, Microsoft, Regence, The Hartford, and Wells Fargo-- joined in casting their ballots for innovative and game-changing start-ups from Washington State. For inCampus, the "best consumer product" award represents a culmination of a year of hard work, long hours, and strained pocketbooks for the founding partners, their friends, consultants, and families.

inCampus now sits ready to take the internet by storm as it prepares for its nationwide roll out later this Summer in conjunction with the beginning of the academic school year. Through two seperate campaigns at University of Washington, inCampus has increased exposure, learned valuable lessons, and received feed back on the UI, design, and features of the site, all of which helped us in devloping the site that won this award. The win further represents a major victory for inCampus because it is a self-funded start up that has managed to beat out 14 other companies who have had the benefit of large VC and angel investments. 

As the company moves forward from this, we wish to thank all of our families, friends, advisors, student executives, and anyone else that has contibuted to inCampus over the last year. We look forward to living up to the billing that this award brings to the site and continuing to revolutionize the way college students buy, sell, find employment, and interact on the web.
