ByDesign was featured in Bostonia Magazine
Arthur Emma’s entrepreneurial streak has been evident at least since fifth grade in Wisconsin, when the principal summoned him and a friend to his office for selling fireworks out of the cafeteria.
At BU, Emma (CGS’09, CAS’11, Wheelock’15) broadened his horizons by majoring in philosophy along with business administration. Proving that you can do something with a philosophy degree, he parlayed his education into founding the technology company ByDesign, which he calls “an organizational, planning, and social networking application for college students and young professionals.”
