Class of 2015
In 2012, Reisch founded Party Headphones, a company that rents wireless headsets for silent discos and raves. Now his company has branched out into hearing solutions for seniors.
A new line of headphones, which enhances sound quality for seniors who experience natural hearing loss with age, is now being used by more than 100 clients, including MTV, Viacom, Century 21, Spotify, Twitter, and New York's Museum of Modern Art, among others.
Reisch and his business partner, a childhood friend, raised $135,000 debt financing to launch the company; the headphone line is already profitable, and Party Headphones is installing pilots with the largest retirement community chain in the United States.
Reisch took three semesters off to grow the company but will graduate this May, and he plans to continue expanding into new markets when he does.
