As an officer in the Entrepreneurship Club I wanted to bring together the bright brains of the technolgy and science schools with the business minds of the MBA program. To do so I organized an event with fellow students that would foster cross campus relationships.
It was held in the atrium of the brand new LEED certified Weill Hall which now houses the biomedical engineering school. Its about a 10 minute walk from the business school.
The event was great and not only did we have speaker David Fischell '75, MS '78, PhD '80, Chair of Cornell BioMed Society (Issued 86 patents, founded 9 BioMed Device Companies, Director of 8 tech companies, is one major serial Entrepreneur), but we also had a little speed networking take place. I enjoyed meeting many great students from across campus. I hope that events like these foster more startups coming out of Cornell.
