Nominate a NYC Venture Fellow
Nominations for the NYC Venture Fellows class of 2012 are now open!
The NYC Venture Fellows program aims to increase collaboration among startup and established businesses, and encourages national and international startups to locate and grow their businesses in New York City. The 2012 class of Venture Fellows, like the current inaugural class, will include 20-30 entrepreneurs from New York City and around the world. The annual program is a joint-effort between NYCEDC and Fordham University.
We welcome candidates from a wide array of fields: for-profit or not-for-profit, from NYC or abroad. Strong candidates have a history of extraordinary leadership, while their ventures have the potential to create sustainable employment in New York City. We’re looking for entrepreneurs with less than 20 years of professional experience, but already a great deal of success.Go to www.nycventurefellows.org to nominate a rising entrepreneur by September 15th. Fellows will be selected by the end of the year.
Anything that encourages people from around the world to come to start their ventures in NYC is something that I strongly support. If you know anyone that is a good candidate to become a NYC Venture Fellow, definitely pass this information on.
