Event Details

You're invited to Brown University's 13th Annual Entrepreneurship Forum


The Entrepreneurship Program is a student-run organization that acts as the extra-curricular side to entrepreneurial learning. Our mission is to support entrepreneurial learning at Brown and to encourage students to create innovative entrepreneurial ventures.  Remarkable enterprises such as CNN, Turner Broadcasting, and Nantucket Nectars all sprang from the minds of Brown undergraduates. EP provides students with workshops, lectures, and panels from some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country. We also have a mentorship program to pair students with experienced professionals for advice and guidance in their own ventures. 


The Forum is an afternoon dedicated to celebrating entrepreneurship for students, alumni, and successful entrepreneurs. This year's forum is dedicated to Professor Barrett Hazeltine in honor of his 50th year at Brown. Barrett Hazeltine has played an integral role in fostering the spirit of entrepreneurship on Brown's campus.
