Brown University Entrepreneurship Program

The Brown Entrepreneurship Program (Brown EP) is the main student entrepreneurship initiative at Brown University. Founded in 1988, the program aims to ignite the entrepreneurial spirit of the students on College Hill. Brown EP has been facilitating various activities on campus for nearly three decades, bringing together like-minded individuals, instilling the community with a self-starter mentality, introducing entrepreneurship as a career path, and providing capital to student ventures.

One of the program's offerings is STARTUP@BROWN, a conference that brings together innovative startups and talented students. This event provides students with exposure to the exciting world of startups through small group discussions with founders, engineering leads, and VC’s from companies such as Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, Teespring, and Casper.

Another initiative is SYNAPSE, a summer program for exceptional engineers, designers, and aspiring entrepreneurs to visit companies and build essential bridges with successful alumni entrepreneurs. The program includes trips to KPCB, Apple, Dropbox, and Neon Labs.

Additionally, the BROWN VENTURE FELLOWSHIP (BVF) is a year-long program that accelerates the development of Brown’s top commercial and technical student entrepreneurs through intensive skills training, collective intelligence of the community, and complementary coursework. The program aims to help launch ventures, develop entrepreneurial skill sets, and acquire the tools to approach real challenges.

The Brown EP falls under the Education industry and is based in the United States. For more information, visit their website: http://brownentrepreneurship.com.
