The MIT Enterprise Forum, Inc. educates entrepreneurs about new ventures and early-stage management. A volunteer, non-profit organization based at MIT, its mission is to strengthen the process of starting and growing innovative technology-oriented companies by providing a series of specialized executive education programs that educate, inform, and support the entrepreneurial community. Founded in 1978, the Forum operates through a network of 24 chapters based in the US and overseas. Each chapter provides advice, support, and educational services for local emerging technology-based companies.
Member chapters are formed around a core group of MIT graduates. Membership and program participation is open to all non-MIT graduates, friends of MIT, local business executives, and entrepreneurs. Each chapter is run by a volunteer board of experienced entrepreneurs, corporate excecutives, university professors, and industry leaders.
