The Bootcamp for Entrepreneurship and Technology is an intensive week-long training course in what it takes to turn an idea into a high-tech business. The Bootcamp will be held on May 14-18 at NUtech Ventures in Lincoln. The Entry deadline is Friday, April 27 and the program will cost $100, which will include materials and meals. Topics covered will include business model generation, customer development, team building, legal basics, and financing. By the end of the week, you'll be ready to take the first steps on your own entrepreneurial journey.
Are you interested in high-tech entrepreneurship?
• No bakeries or boutiques here - we'll be focusing on the skills you need to build investment-grade, high-growth potential companies in fields like biotech, software, and engineering.
Are you a current undergraduate, graduate student, or postdoc at UNL?
• All majors welcome! Sure, high-tech startups need coders and engineers, but they also need business people and designers. You'll be working as part of a diverse team in the bootcamp.
Are you willing to commit to a full-time, full-week program?
• This isn't a set of lectures, so don't plan on just sitting in the back of the room. Entrepreneurship's all about working hard and interacting with teammates, partners, and customers. You'll practice that by working with a team to start developing your own business model, and you'll learn the next steps to take if you want to turn that model into a startup company of your own.
Want to be part of Nebraska's entrepreneurial community?
• You'll have a unique opportunity to engage in real, in-depth discussions with young entrepreneurs, investors, and experts in law and finance. Who knows? The person sitting next to you might just be your future business partner.
