Startup Houston

The Rice Alliance is offering a 2-day Technology Entrepreneurial Workshop on July 25th and 26th that is designed to teach the Basics of Starting, Growing, and Funding a Successful Startup Technology Company. The Rice Alliance is one of the key driving forces in helping the startup community in Houston (in addition to being one of the Top 10 Grad Schools in the U.S.), and as such is able to bring together an impressive array of resources for their events. If you have a great idea, but just don’t know how to get it off of the ground, then I highly recommend that you check this out.

Here is a brief summary of the topics covered:

• Entrepreneurship Basics
• Entrepreneurial Lessons Learned
• Protecting and Licensing Intellectual Property
• Structuring and Funding a New Venture
• Build a Successful Management Team
• Understanding Investment Capital
• Negotiating your Deal and Financial Modeling
• Business Plan Development and Communicating your Story
