-- BREAKING NEWS -- Startup-Summit a success!
Posted by euroclub
|
-- BREAKING NEWS --
"This is the best event of the year that we participated in," one startup representative proclaimed.
Even though MIT is currently holding its exam finals, several hundred students registered for the event and participated in workshops offered by startups and sponsors. "We maybe expected more students to show up," another participant said, "but the mere quality of the students as well as the calibre of the participating companies more than compensated for it. We will definitely attend the next summit again - maybe even sponsor it!"
With this overwhelmingly positive feedback, the organizing startup summit team has already started to plan the 2nd startup summit - please keep coming back to https://euroclub.mit.edu or https://startupsummit.com for more news. |

Registration for Academic Community
Posted by janos
|
Dear students, post-docs, scientists, and startup-intersted..
Basically all, who are interested in participating in the summit. Originally we stated that student registration will open on April 24th. Some minor parts of the concept were still changning so that we did not open the registration on April 24th.
The plan is now not to open ... soon:-) There will be no strict formal registration. You will be able to choose workshops that you would like to participate in. Some startups have not yet submitted the information on what workshop they will host so that we had to wait a few more days.
Come back or join our email list where we will anounce new information. |
