No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups.

Get to know In the Park founder Cherie Lum, who has joined the summer 2022 cohort of CREATE-X Startup Launch.
My name is Cherie Lum. I am a team of one and I am a master's student at Georgia Tech focusing on computer science.
In The Park is a startup that connects like-minded individuals in the top 50 cities. In the end, we bring relationships back to reality!
It feels incredible. I have always wanted good mentors, access to business information and the opportunity to work on my own startup with other brilliant entrepreneurs.
I wanted to give myself the opportunity to learn how to scale and market my business. I would also like to mentor other young women to be savvy entrepreneurs one day. And lastly, I'd love to make my family proud – to be the first entrepreneur in my family would be an honor.
I'm looking forward to being around other motivated entrepreneurs and experienced mentors in the startup field.
