The Loop: Connecting People and Building Communities

Through personal experience, my co-founder and I know that young adults often get wrapped up in their work and can forget about the key aspects of life like friendship, mental and physical health, and going to an exciting event. These issues are particularly prevent when someone is planting roots in a new city. In order to form a solution to this daunting feeling of unfamiliarity and disconnectedness, we have created The Loop which is an app that aims to combat these problems in young adults’ lives. This app provides a platform for young adults all around their designated city to find comfort in small communities. We gather data of the user’s interests and they then are presented a wide variety of events and “loops” to join that cater to their preferences. With this app, we hope that young adults can find their home away from home and we will provide that for them by keeping them in the loop.
