About Garage

Pear Garage started back in 2013, when two Stanford students came to Pejman and Mar with an idea to create an informal gathering space for Stanford students interested in entrepreneurship.

The Pear office on High St. became a hub for entrepreneurial engineers to work on side projects, hear from tech titans, and launch their own companies.

Today, Pear Garage has enhanced its programming for members. We like to think of it as a social hacker club, where students work together to find meaningful problems and build solutions through collaborating with the Pear team and our network. Pear Garage offers:

Problems to solve

Learn about current problems through talks with industry-experts and founders

Business mentorship

1-on-1 office hours with our Pear team of experienced company builders enable you to ask us any questions and gather feedback on your business decisions

Resources

$100K+ worth of resources (including AWS, Google Cloud, and Notion)

Accountability

Vibrant network of builders so you can learn from each other, and hold each other to the highest standards

Fun

Social events allow you to hang out with entrepreneurs and the many remarkable alumni of Pear Garage, including the founders of Affinity, Mem, Skiff, Nightfall, Cresta, and Ladder
