New Workshop for Stanford Students: "Navigating Entrepreneurship"

Jack Fuchs, an adjunct faculty member in Stanford’s Department of Management Science & Engineering (MS&E), is leading a two-session workshop in a few weeks that is designed to help Stanford students with entrepreneurial aspirations identify the types of entrepreneurial pursuits appropriate for each person  – as well as to identify Stanford resources that are best suited to those pursuits.

The sessions will be on Tuesday, Feb. 18, and Tuesday, Feb. 25, from 4:15 to 7:15 p.m. on both days, in the Spilker Engineering & Applied Sciences Building, Room 232 (a.k.a. Nano 232). Students interested in attending should email Jack Fuchs by 5:30 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 7, with their name, degree program and a brief description of their entrepreneurial interests/experiences.

“The workshop aims to help students answer the questions, ‘What kind of entrepreneur could I be, and how should I plan to get there?'” said Fuchs, a seasoned Silicon Valley business executive who also serves on the teaching team of the STVP course “Technology Venture Formation” (MS&E 273).

The goal of the two-part workshop is to have students gain an appreciation for what entrepreneurship means to them. “By having a better sense of who they are as an entrepreneur, they will be more likely to find certain pursuits fulfilling,” Fuchs said.
