March 27, 2025 - We had the pleasure of hearing from our incredible GRSP student, Atharva Lele, as he reflected on his year at Georgia Tech! From his first-ever visit to the famous Partners Pizza in PTC—where he discovered potato pizza 
and his new love for sweet tea (thanks to his host family the Soulakos’) 
—to confirming that Southerners really are as friendly as he imagined, it’s been a year full of memorable experiences! Atharva and his team at Georgia Tech made waves by winning the 2025 Georgia Tech InVenture Prize 
for their innovative 3D-printed PCBs—a cost-effective game-changer in the supply chain industry! Stay tuned for more on their patent and next steps... world domination in electronics?
