an AI model to analyze patient data to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease

Carter Kuo ’23 never planned on starting a company while he was still a student

Carter Kuo ’23 never planned on starting a company while he was still a student with the Adam C. Sinn '00 Department of Finance at Mays Business School, but in 2022, that’s exactly what happened.

Alongside Jackson Sheen ’24, then a Texas A&M College of Agriculture and Life Sciences student, Kuo co-founded hat company Concho, starting with A&M-licensed hats sold at local events around College Station. What began as a side project between classes has grown into a brand now licensed with more than 60 universities nationwide and new school partnerships launching every month.
