University Technology Exposure Program

Share your work with the global engineering community and industry

We believe in the importance of knowledge sharing for innovation. However, many projects and technologies created in universities don’t get any meaningful exposure outside the academic world. Wevolver wants to change this. As a student or researcher, getting your work seen by thousands of engineers and tech companies can increase its impact, lead to collaborations, raise your public profile, and improve your career prospects.
