Volunteer
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.
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. Anyone who shares its vision of building innovative, technology-based businesses through entrepreneurial leadership can become a volunteer. 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 think you have the right leadership qualities, experience, contacts, and/or motivation to help move this chapter to the next level, please contact us to arrange in person meeting to talk about how your skill sets can be most effectively utilized.
Here are some of the areas in which we have openings for volunteers.
Programs
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
The MIT Enterprise Forum conducts joint programs with other related organizations from specific fields of technology, university-affiliations, or business management. Forum volunteers act as liaisons with these organizations, and become involved in planning and conducting joint events with them.
Sponsors
The MIT Enterprise Forum exists through the support of our sponsors. Sponsors support the Enterprise Forum because they are committed to building a technology-based business economy in North Texas. Forum volunteers work with our sponsors to ensure that the Enterprise Forum is meeting the information and support needs of new business ventures in our area.
Marketing
Forum volunteers communicate the Forum’s mission, programs and activities to the Forum’s members and to the general business population interested in technology-based entrepreneurship in North Texas.
