STARTING-UP NEW TECHNOLOGY-BASED BUSINESS ENTERPRISES at MIT, Part II
short title: Tech Start-Ups at MIT
Mr. Joseph G. Hadzima, Jr., and Mr. Richard Shyduroff,
plus members of the MIT faculty ...
6-credits, 2-0-4
Tuesday, 7-9 pm, Room 56-191
immediately following the regular weekly meeting of the
mit entrepreneurs club, aka: the e-club, at 6pm in 56-114
In this seminar we define and study the stages of development
of new enterprises at MIT, often beginning at that exciting moment
when a new idea for a tech product or service is realized, and
through the processes of debugging, team building and maintenance,
idea sharing and intellectual property protection, licensing and deal
making, market research, business plan writing, fundraising,
development, usability testing, manufacturing, and selling, to
customer support and the next new idea.
Participants follow the history of selected successful MIT spin-off
companies with due attention paid to the people as well as their
ideas, behind MIT start-ups.
Students in this seminar host live MIT technology and science start-up
case presentations given by individuals and start-up teams working
from zero-stage, to partners in going-concerns of historical relevance
to The Institute and the economy.
Joe Hadzima '73, is senior lecturer in the Sloan School of Management,
legal counsel to The MIT Enterprise Forum, and co-founding partner
in the Kendall Square -based start-up `foundry' Mainstreet Partners, LLP,
and academic and a professional advisor to the MIT e-club and our
start-up seminars.
Richard Shyduroff is the co-founder and co-director of the
MIT Entrepreneurs Club ("the e-club") and has been involved in a
number of MIT start-up companies since c1979, and in numerous other
projects and activities around The 'Tute since c1962.
