How CampusBud Came to Life

CampusBud was born during an exchange semester in the United States, where the founder, originally from Europe, experienced firsthand the challenges that students face while navigating college life. From keeping up with campus events to finding the best student deals and staying connected, it became clear that there was a gap in the market for an app that could simplify and enhance these experiences. Unlike other solutions, CampusBud is designed to be safe and exclusively for college students at a specific campus, creating a trusted environment where students can connect, share, and support each other.

Research has shown clear interest from students, further validating the need for such an app. After pitching the idea in a competition, the concept received extremely positive feedback and even won the pitch. This validation reinforced the belief that CampusBud could truly make a difference for students. Today, CampusBud is in development with the mission to become the go-to app for college students, helping them live their best college experience while fostering a safer and more connected campus community.
