Boston is a great place to start and build a company. There is a wealth of resources that are unique to this town and a vibrant community of hackers, business people, and investors at various stages in their career.

However, Boston is also transient town, especially given the large student population that refreshes each year. It’s also surprisingly difficult for students to get plugged-in to everything that is happening in the local tech ecosystem. This class is designed to help you hit the ground running and is a starting point for your entrepreneurial journey in Boston.

You’ll Learn:
—How to become a native of the Boston tech ecosystem
—How to prioritize time across large numbers of events and startup-oriented services
