The mission of “Anthony’s Amici” is to provide financial resources that directly benefit the Anthony DiPrinzio Entrepreneurship Endowment at University of California Berkeley. Contributions will support student entrepreneurs to expand and challenge their innovation and technology skills with the intent to create new, futuristic ideas that will lead to advancements in innovation and technology across multifaceted industries.

Additional Information/Recognition:

Anthony’s legacy at UC Berkeley will be recognized in two creative, tangible ways via an individual innovation champion award presented annually and by funding a professional development session twice annually on campus.  

Anthony DiPrinzio Innovation Champion Award

This first-time, annual award was given to a UC Berkeley student on May 8, 2026. The honor was presented to a student member of the Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology (SCET) who embodied the SCET’s mission of empowering innovators to change the world and make an extraordinary contribution to the campus innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem, just as Anthony did.

Anthony DiPrinzio Professional Development Session

Held twice per year, the Anthony DiPrinzio Professional Development Session is led by a Cal alum and provides a tangible benefit to students participating in the “Collider Cup & Expo” and innovation champion candidates. 60-70 students are invited per session. 

*Collider Cup & Expo is held annually at UC Berkeley with over 200 in-person attendees and many online viewers, where approximately one dozen teams compete at SCET’s flagship event. SCET believes that innovation is an interdisciplinary activity. While many students are drawn from SCET’s courses, Collider Cup is accessible to all students and majors, fostering an environment where diverse minds collaborate, innovate, and embark on innovative journeys. This is a creative way to share Anthony’s legacy and instill his innovative and entrepreneurial spirit in current UC Berkeley students and the greater SCET community.
