Entrepreneur In Residence

• Oct 2022 - Present

The Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EIR) program is a pilot program where we bring in practicing innovators and entrepreneurs with subject matter expertise in new venture creation to coach, mentor and create innovative co-curricular programming for students, presenting them with a practical perspective that is deeply in tune with the EIR’s own work outside an academic context. EIRs helps educate, mentor and coach Tufts students across campus on the realities of being an innovator and entrepreneur in any setting – startup, corporate, non-profit, government and more. The EIR with Community Focus shall not only help students learn how to become entrepreneurial leaders, but will also act as a personal ambassador for innovation and entrepreneurship among a diverse set of student groups, building awareness for learning experiences and collaborating with student leaders to bring these learning experiences to student groups that are historically under-represented in entrepreneurship education at Tufts Show less
