Founded by a Northwestern student, cold-brew coffee vendor BrewBike has added the university's NUSeeds fund and angel investors to its seed consortium.

BrewBike, a US-based cold-brew coffee vendor founded by a Northwestern University student, has closed an $800,000 seed round backed by the institution’s investment fund NUSeeds.
The round also featured angel investors including Mats Lederhausen, Deborah Quazzo, Matt Matros and Venetia Kontogouris.
Founded in 2016, BrewBike sells cold brew coffee through a mini-retail outlet at the university and through subscriptions to on-campus Greek societies.
The company has generated more than $150,000 in revenue to date, selling more than 35,000 cups of coffee. It will use the capital to expand around Chicago and beyond to other university campuses.
BrewBike was founded by Lucas Philips, a senior-year student at Northwestern who acts as the company’s chief growth officer.
Philips said: “Before BrewBike, college students either had to drink bad coffee in the cafeteria or stand in long lines at Starbucks.
“BrewBike solves that problem by bringing coffee to college campuses in the most convenient ways, every day.”
