"Start-up Mentoring Workshop - May 17, 2008
5th annual Rice Alliance forum for entrepreneurs
The Rice Alliance-Austin Chapter presents the fifth annual Start-Up Mentoring Workshop on Saturday May 17th. Prior events have been well attended and packed with useful information for start-up teams. Don't miss it!
There are three ways to participate – a morning open enrollment “how to” class and private qualified mentoring in the afternoon:
Attend “Start-Ups 101” in the morning to learn what’s needed to effectively launch your new business.
"Start-ups 101" is an interactive classroom experience providing how-to guidance for early-stage teams. We discuss the tradeoffs between raising outside capital and bootstrapping, how bootstrapping works, tips on soliciting VC funds, and key legal and financial considerations. The program is structured with plenty of time for questions and answers.
The morning tutorial is available to any interested entrepreneur. Pre-registration for "Start-ups 101 Tutorial" costs only $20 through May 14th. Onsite registration costs $40 if space is available. The program starts at 9:30 AM and concludes at 12:30 PM. Lunch will be provided."
