About Comet Foundry.

The short version — for press, partners, and universities who need the facts fast.

WHAT WE ARE

Comet Foundry is a global nonprofit founder movement building the largest network of student builder communities on college campuses. We establish campus chapters — physical builder spaces that run the same Four Labs, the same Semester Arc, and the same builder standard at every university we operate in.

FOUNDED

2026. Chapter 01 at UT Dallas.

STRUCTURE

Independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization — pending IRS determination. Campus chapters operate as registered student organizations at their host universities under the Comet Foundry Chapter Standard.

CURRENT FOOTPRINT

1 active chapter — UT Dallas. 6 incoming chapters — UT Austin, Texas A&M, Rice, Georgia Tech, Berkeley, MIT.

THE MISSION

Building the largest founder movement on college campuses. Moving students from the 9-5 path to the venture path — by giving them the infrastructure, community, and programs to build real things while still in school.

FOUNDER

Vishva Patel — 2x founder, 10+ years cybersecurity, former GSA President at UTD, Spring 2025 alumnus.
