This episode, featuring our friends Jonah from Molson Coors and Blanca from i.c.stars, was recorded LIVE at Summerfest Tech 2024.

Since 2018, Summerfest Tech has been shining a spotlight on Wisconsin's growing tech scene, bringing together industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and visionaries to network, educate, and celebrate tech in our great city.

In this episode we learn more about how i.c.stars builds successful partnerships with companies like Molson Coors through a 16-week technology internship program for non-traditional candidates. From this, Molson Coors has hired nine i.c.stars graduates.

The partnership goes beyond just financial sponsorship, focusing on mentorship, career development, and community engagement, with Molson Coors being named i.c.stars Corporate Partner of the Year in 2023 and offering opportunities for graduates to work across their North American operations.
