National Entrepreneurship Bootcamp @ Stanford :: Apps due Feb 1, open to Undergrad & Grad Students, nationwide

Learned about this, today: E-Bootcamp 2011: Real-Time Applied Entrepreneurship - April 7-10, 2011.

Be part of one of the nation's most selective national entrepreneurship conferences, held in conjunction by the Business Association of Stanford Entrepreneurial Students (BASES) and Princeton University's Business Today (BT).

The BASES & BT National Entrepreneurship Bootcamp is an all-expenses-paid trip to Stanford University, including food, lodging, and travel for 110 student delegates.

We are committed to a conference focused on bringing together students with brilliant ideas from universities around the nation with founders, entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists for an intensive learning experience.

Applicants will be evaluated on the basis of the idea they would like to bring in to develop into reality throughout the conference, and on the potential we feel they have to become outstanding entrepreneurs. We welcome any highly motivated student to apply, regardless of prior experiences.
