 The MIT Enterprise Forum is
entirely organized and operated by volunteers. Just as the
Forum programs are open to anyone with an interest in
technology entrepreneurship, so too are volunteer
opportunities with the Enterprise Forum open to anyone who
shares its vision of building innovative, technology-based
businesses through entrepreneurial leadership. Most
Enterprise Forum volunteers are drawn not only from the
ranks of technology entrepreneurs, but also from the
entrepreneurial ecosystem that supports them in North Texas.
If you are interested in gaining
leadership and management experience; learning more about
technology entrepreneurship, and taking advantage of
professional networking opportunities through the MIT
Enterprise Forum global network, read on. The MIT Enterprise
Forum chapter in Dallas Fort Worth is always looking for
energetic volunteers and leaders to help shape the future of
this growing and vibrant chapter.
If you think you have the
right leadership qualities, experience, contacts, and/or
motivation to help move this chapter to the next level,
please contact Antoinette Muller, Director of the MIT
Enterprise Forum Global Office at
amuller@mit.edu to arrange an in person meeting to
talk about how your skill sets can be most effectively
utilized. Antoinette
will be visiting Dallas and will be available for in person
appointments on Tuesday, November 6 and Wednesday, November
7, 2007. The main purpose of this trip is to connect with
potential volunteer leaders in the entrepreneurial community
in Dallas and Fort Worth and to stimulate events-based
activity under the umbrella of the MIT Enterprise Forum
brand. For more information on the MIT Enterprise Forum,

The Forum
conducts a series of educational programs throughout the
year revolving around technology-based entrepreneurship.
Many of these programs are case studies of new business
ventures dealing with the many challenges of building new
businesses, whether start-ups or new ventures within
established companies. The Forum volunteers develop the
program, and acquire speakers, panelists and moderators.
Alliances

Enterprise Forum conducts joint programs with other related
organizations from specific fields of technology,
university-affiliations, or business management. Forum

become involved in planning and conducting joint events with
them.
