Made
possible by the generous donations from:


The EntreTech
Speakers series introduces students to experienced entrepreneurs who can share
real world experiences. The purpose of the series is to bridge
materials students are learning in class with actual examples
from people who have experienced it first hand. The motivation
is to have students learn how concepts have been applied in actual
startup situations. Speakers may relate to students stories demonstrating
the methods they used to overcome serious issues they faced. These
could relate to financing the company at various stages, identifying
real markets for their products, bringing the company public,
or going through an acquisition. Eight sessions are planned each
academic year.
All are welcome.
