MIT Global Entrepreneurship Bootcamp

The MIT Global Entrepreneurship Bootcamp was launched in August 2014 as an intensive and immersive week-long
entrepreneurship and innovation leadership program that leads participants (Bootcampers) through the innovation
framework and curriculum taught in core entrepreneurship classes at MIT. Alumni of these MIT classes have
launched hundreds of ventures worth billions of dollars and created social impact around the globe.
 
MIT Bootcamps bring entrepreneurs and innovators from around the world to learn and practice this same framework
from MIT faculty and MIT-trained mentors, using the same rigorous and disciplined approach. In addition to the
innovation framework, participants learn and practice critical skills required to be leaders and drive innovation and
collaboration: teamwork, leading a team, communication, mutual goal reinforcement, and giving feedback. 

Admission to the MIT Global Entrepreneurship Bootcamp is highly selective and based on the following five criteria: rigor,
initiative, contribution to community, team and cultural fit, and entrepreneurial potential.

Since inception, the program has admitted 381 Bootcamp participants from over 70 countries. Collectively they have launched over a 100 new ventures raising over $32 million.
