WPI Venture Forum Program Committee Members

Please call the WPI Venture Forum office for additional information at +1-508-831-5075.
The program committee identifies speakers, case presenters and panelists to present on topics of interest to entrepreneurs at the monthly WPI Venture Forum meetings. The committee uses the feedback garnered from evaluation forms that attendees complete at the end of each program to aid in the selection of program topics. Program committee members act as moderators and provide summaries on the presentations for publication in the newsletter.
