University of Colorado - Startups2Students 2010

(Tentatively) March 11, 2010, 5:30-7:30p in the Enginering Center at CU Boulder.

 

startups2students is a collaboration between the University of Colorado and the Boulder and Denver early stage entrepreneurial community. The goal is to introduce students interested in summer programming internships or jobs with early stage companies in the Boulder/Denver area to these companies, as well as to introduce the students to some young people who have chosen a career and life path of entrepreneurship.

 

After the success of last year's event, CSUAC (the Computer Science Undergraduate Advisory Committee) at CU will be hosting another event (tentatively) March 11, 2010. This free event is open to graduate and undergraduate computer science students attending CU. Food and refreshments will be provided...it's chill and casual. The format will be similar to that of the 2009 event, so check out last years agenda (below).

CSUAC is currently seeking entrepreneurs in the Boulder/Denver area who are interested in networking with the CU computer science community. Interested? Contact Ben Limmer
