Starting with our Spring 2020 Cohort, SkyDeck has migrated its program temporarily to remote programming in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the meantime, our program remains as robust as ever and we continue to offer all services and benefits, with startups participating remotely from all over the world. Our startups continue to have the same high number of opportunities to network with investors, advisors, and to build community with fellow startups during this period. SkyDeck’s program has even expanded during this period, with more workshops, Advisors, and connections to UC Berkeley talent and alumni to help support our moonshot startups.
