Open whapworth opened 12 years ago

Shopping to other schools program improvements? formal mentorship roles....how would that work -tech stars...teams meet with all the mentors, and then pair mentors naturally like that -2 hours in break out and then 1 hour with mentors 1on1 -just set expectation

Program mechanics -Techstars focuses on pitch Boston Startup school: -Make students pitch at end of every pitches -other mentors teaching classes -other class topics -more effective, people should come in knowing class topic, and have homework that relates to class topic and project -Fay: teach biz model generation or market development and sales, team building (hiring and getting along) -assigned readings?

Setting up events in Boston next year for students to go to -Go to techstars or dogpatch labs space for an event -Harvard innovation lab - tom eisenmann: platformsandnetworks@blogspot.com -MIT -Go to lean startup meetup

People and Groups: Eric Ries - Maybe get up to class Abby Fichtner - microsoft Jessica Livingston - y combinator Tom Eisenmann: platformsandnetworks@blogspot.com StartLabs.org (started by MIT undergrads) BostonStartupSchool.com Aggregate Andover Startups
