How can I share lessons that I’ve learned as an entrepreneur with students that are on the startup path?

For most events, Harvard alumni are cordially invited to participate in programs through the Harvard Grid, Harvard Innovation Labs, the Office of Technology Development, or by connecting directly with student clubs and organizations. If you are interested in hiring SEAS students as interns or full time, please contact our Careers team.
