First Meeting - Information Session

[Jason Kuruzovich]

Severino Center Launches Foundry-RPI
The Severino Center is launching Foundry-RPI, a working group where
entrepreneurs can meet weekly, get peer feedback, and execute on ideas
in an environment in which it is both expected that you are trying to
do awesome things and it is OK to fail.

All,

Not too many people replied to the prior survey, so it seems best to
start with an information session. I'll have up to 3 folks from the
UTAH Foundry on SKYPE. We can discuss how the Foundry system works and
how we would like it to work at RPI. Spread the word. Again, this
only works if we get enough entrepreneurs together.

********************************************
The Foundry-RPI program will continue this summer. Student teams can
engage in the program either for course credit or in an internship
setting. Small grants are available for the internship option.

An information session will be held on Tuesday, January 24th at 6:00
PM in room 104 in the Lally Building. Email sc...@rpi.edu to let us
know you are coming so we can order enough pizza.

Interested? Join the Google group (this is how we will share
information throughout the semester):

We are also on Facebook:

The Foundry system was developed by an RPI graduate now at the
University of Utah and includes a proven method for structuring
business incubation. A key advantage of leveraging the Foundry system
is that they have already created a lot of resources that they have
placed online. For more information on the Foundry program, you can
watch the videos below:

To make RSVP easier....I created a Facebook event. Please join the
event and spread the word.
