Program
Plug and Play StartupCamp 2012 Winter Session
January 9 - March 16
You have the dedication, the eagerness and the experience to make a difference. We are here to help you go that extra mile.
Successfully driving a startup requires more than just a good idea and cool technology. We believe that what differentiates the best from the rest is a passionate, well-rounded team, a super disruptive technology and an innovative idea created for a larger market. Other factors that play into creating a successful venture are access to outside resources such as mentorship and raising funds. The Startup Camp Program can help take your business to the next level through our weekly active coaching sessions and through access to our established network of VC's, Investors, Corporations and other Silicon Valley Players.
The Plug and Play Startup Camp is a 10-week program designed to immerse university startups and entrepreneurs into the Silicon Valley environment. Through a combination of structured workshops, speaker series, mentorship sessions as well as active coaching, startup founders will crystallize their ideas and business plans, build out their startup's business model and prototypes as well as present their refined pitches to the venture capital community.
Startup Camp will conclude with the Startup Camp EXPO, a demo day that will connect the venture capital and angel investor community with Startup Camp companies and provide additional exposure for the companies.
