Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµ College is hosting the region’s first 3 Day Startup Weekend from November 3rd – 5th on its Beverly campus. The 3 Day Startup organization is viewed as the global leader in delivering intensive, hands-on entrepreneurship education programs at colleges and university campuses across the globe.
Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµ College’s Angle Center for Entrepreneurship has entered a partnership with 3 Day Startup for this event. Aspiring entrepreneurs from across the region will go from early-stage idea on November 3rd to viable venture by Sunday, November 5th. Alumni from other 3 Day Startup workshops have gone on to Mass Challenge, Techstars and Y-Combinator.
In announcing their partnership with Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµ College, Ellyson Glance, program coordinator for 3 Day Startup, commented “Our organization has delivered hands-on entrepreneurship programming to over 150 schools in 30 different countries around the world, and we are so excited to add Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµ to that list. We can't wait to see the amazing ideas, initiative, and dedication that the students at Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµ have to offer.”
Deirdre Sartorelli, the Director for the Angle Center for Entrepreneurship noted, “We look forward to including our participants at Î÷¹ÏÊÓÆµ in 3 Day Startup’s network of over 12,000 entrepreneurs. This workshop is a big step in helping them achieve their entrepreneurial potential both during and beyond this November weekend.”
