Flourishing In Its First Year
To achieve its goal of providing students with the information and ideas they will need for their entrepreneurial endeavors, this year TECH initiated a lecture series and a faculty dinner series. Through a program called TECH Access, TECH sponsored a series of symposiums and conferences.
TECH also arranged for the transportation and lodging necessary for students to attend conferences as far away as California.
TECH’s second goal is collaboration between students, faculty, alumni and industry leaders to work on projects that weave technology and entrepreneurship together.
To that end, TECH hosted a networking event earlier this year to give students an opportunity to meet and set up contacts with industry leaders sharing their interests.
And a venture called the Harvard Technology Management Program (TMP) was initiated under the leadership of Thomas J. Castillo ’02, a student member of the group who is also a Crimson editor.
This program aims to provide students with a chance to apply their technical skills by working on projects for local high-tech companies. This year, the program sponsored one project, in which three students participated. These students worked for a company called Student Universe, in which they developed software for an automated travel-agency program.
