Eyesight Creative is a new innovative approach to Business. This startup company, which was founded and built by Jake Hurwitz, a Leeds Business School student at the University of Colorado, is a creative agency and accelerator program that brings together talented individuals with local businesses. It a space where college students and recent grads in the boulder area, who embody strong creative talents such as videography and graphic design, come together to use those talents in a marketable way. These creative individuals get to come together to form a community, where they partner up with many small businesses that lack the necessary skills and eye for design to build quality videos, websites, or logos.

Hurwitz started this company, by being extremely talented and creative himself, and noticing many others who embodied similar exceptional talents, but lacked the real world professional skills. Being a business student and having relations to many local businesses, he noticed many of them didn’t have the technical skills to create or design marketing aids for their businesses. He then noticed a connection between the two; they both had resources for what the other needed. Then, by binding the gap, Eyesight Creative was built.

Over the past two months, the Eyesight team traveled all over Colorado meeting some of the smartest and most successful people in the state, interviewing them and getting to know their stories, compiling it all into a video series. The purpose of this experience was to gain great insight and tips to give to aspiring students and young professionals to help them land their dream jobs and start their own companies. Eyesight Creative will be having an event at Spark Boulder on Thursday October 27^th at 8:30 to celebrate the launch of their highly anticipated web series. In these videos you will get to hear all the stories, experiences, challenges, and even the failures of many successful business professionals all throughout Colorado.
