FOR STUDENTS, RESEARCHERS AND PROFESSIONALS
BEC designed and implemented a structured approach to entrepreneurship. We take participants through a an intensive and practical business engagement process: 1) we facilitate the understanding of the startup world though in dept business lectures, 2) we coach individually on how to develop and refine ideas with structured frameworks: such as designing and executing "elevator pitches, executive summaries, and pitch decks." 3) We help build and consolidate confidence though open sessions with guest speakers, and one on one meeting with local investors.

FROM BOSTON TO SILICON VALLEY
In early 2014 some BEC coaches and advisors went to Silicon Valley to learned techniques form the local startup business world. Our coaches including the director have been working with companies like HPE, VMware (Dell), Ford, Disney Interactive, and many other tech startups in the internet, web and data center industry for the past 6 years and assimilated knowledge on how to build business, teams and products form the inside. The secret of Silicon Valley hides in its mindset & culture, but especially in their way of building products and teams. Many enterprises are using extremely innovative design and development methodologies to launch their products. Some of them are: Agile, Scrum, Design Thinking, Extreme Programming, and an extreme focus on UX ( User Experience) & CX ( Customer Experience). Furthermore User Research methodologies are core of Design and Development to generate successful outcomes. User research includes techniques such as Persona creation, User Journeys, and the Design Brief. Our goal is to transfer these lessons into the BEC repository of knowledge for future generation of entrepreneurs.
