Hey HN -- I am running this experimental class at Stanford and we are looking for entrepreneurs in Emerging Markets to join the 20+ student engineers already enrolled in our class.
If you or anyone you know fits the bill, please apply by APRIL 13th.
See below for description.
FOR ENTREPRENEURS IN EMERGING MARKETS:
Check out emergingsv.com
Are you an emerging market entrepreneur with an early-stage tech startup with high-impact potential?
Do you want to:
+ tap into Silicon Valley’s vast resources?
+ get feedback from entrepreneurial Stanford students?
+ connect with experts, including lawyers and successful entrepreneurs, from Silicon Valley?
+ pitch your start-up to a panel of American VCs?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you should consider joining our experimental Stanford program “Emerging Silicon Valleys.”
+ ESV is an experimental student-run class that provides a forum for emerging market entrepreneurs to work collaboratively with Stanford students on high impact business opportunities.
+ Each week will feature a broadcast by a Silicon Valley thought leader - some of the best known Stanford professors, Sand Hill Road VCs and successful tech entrepreneurs. Driven Stanford students will join you in crafting a pitch for your startup, connecting you with the Stanford network and offering you feedback on your product as it evolves.
The program runs from April 18th to June 8th. During that time we expect entrepreneurs to commit 3 hours a week to the program. For the first 8 weeks, entrepreneurs will interact virtually with the class and students from their home countries.
At the conclusion of the program, successful ventures will be given the opportunity to join us in Silicon Valley and present their startup to a panel of venture capitalists in Silicon Valley.
Specific calendar can be found on our coursekit site.
If you are interested in this program, please [email protected]/ESV12
You will need to create a new account and answer the questions after logging in.
The deadline for applications is Friday April 13th. We will get back to you by Monday, April 16.
Looking forward to reading your applications,
The Emerging SV Team
