Two college sophomores met. They coded. What started as dorm room experiments turned into Posh—a platform designed to help anyone throw events that actually scale.



October 2020: they launched. May 2021: Avante Price and Eli Taylor-Lemire walked away from their degrees after securing $1.5M in funding. Bold move? Absolutely. But when you're solving real problems for event organizers, sometimes the classroom can wait.

Since dropping out, they've been heads-down building. The kind of relentless execution that turns scrappy MVPs into products people rely on.

The tactic of dropping out to get funding is too common now, but honestly, being able to turn an MVP into a product that people rely on is the real skill.

Damn, dropping out with just 1.5 million in funding—this guy is really bold.

Something written in a dorm room can also get funded with 1.5 million; I honestly can't understand this logic.

Dropping out and getting 1.5 million is really impressive, this is the right entrepreneurial attitude.
