Exeter hosted its first Entrepreneurship Competition in April with four teams delivering five- to 10-minute pitch presentations in Phillips Hall. Mazin Sihweil ’26 took home first prize for TruShot, a blockchain-based system that verifies image authenticity at the moment of capture. TruShot, Sihweil says, would help overcome the proliferation of fake images and the damage and controversy they cause.
Entrepreneurship club co-heads Dushant Lohano ’26, Tristan Zhang ’25, Steph Handte ’25 and faculty adviser and Modern Languages Instructor Ning Zhou awarded the winning certificate based on originality of idea, feasibility and potential impact, clarity of presentation, and team dynamics and engagement.
