What is this?
You will simply attend three Entrepreneurship events and report back
Purpose:
The purpose of this extra credit assignment is to prepare you for your group project and give you a head start. You will learn how to come up with an idea and pitch an idea on the spot. You will also improve on your networking skills and get to know other students.
NOTE: I realize that you may have a hard conflict with the time of one or more of these meetings. In that case submit a pdf that indicates the meeting and the conflict you have. You will be able to substitute a different entrepreneirship related event that comes up later in the term. When you do, we will regrade this submission
