Events
These events are typically held two a semester in the basement of Blake’s on Telegraph. There is always an excellent mix of students (both technical and not), experienced entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, lawyers, and randoms.
These semi-weekly dinners for Berkeley entrepreneurs have been growing in popularity since we began them last Fall. We now regularly host 20-30 students at a local startup.
This semester:
9/23 at 7PM, Venture Lab
10/14 at 7PM, Redux
11/4 at 7PM, Delta Kappa Epsilon
12/2
Probably the coolest of our events, this is held every Spring in the Wozniak Lounge. Co-hosted by the Computer Science Undergraduate Association, it is a 24-hour hacking celebration where teams of 4 techies hack without breaks or food (the last part was a joke…but they really don’t move).
Next Event: Spring, 2010
Other
Although we are the coolest, there are a number of other entrepreneurship focused organizations that host a few regular events:
These take place roughly once a month on Wednesdays and are hosted by the Computer Science Undergraduate Association. You can find more information at their website.
Entrepreneurship Forum (Lester Center)
Once a month, the Lester Center organizes a panel of experts on such topics as investing, current economic issues, and Prediction markets. Registration, although required, is free to students and faculty, and $25 for community members.
Entrepreureship Round Table (Haas EA)
This annual event held by the Entrepreneurs Association is an opportunity for students and practicing entrepreneurs to come together in an informal setting. It provides an excellent opportunity for students to meet fellow entrepreneurs who have had to face the common strategic, operational, and financial challenges that start-ups face. Details for the 2009 event can be found here.
