EA meets weekly, see our events tab for upcoming meetings! Come learn and participate in entrepreneurship, while building your local network!
The Entrepreneurs Association at UC Santa Barbara is a business, entrepreneurship, and technology club. The club's goal is to prepare members for the professional world by helping them build out their networks and ease their transition from university to the competitive job market. The mission of Entrepreneurs Association is to empower students with the business acumen, skills, and experience that will ensure their success as future leaders and contributors to society.
Events include, but are not limited to:
EATS (Executive-at-the-Table) - EAT meetings provide a unique opportunity for TMP students to enjoy a casual lunch or afternoon refreshments and conversation with an engaging and influential entrepreneur or executive. Within this intimate setting our mentors share business advice and anecdotes from their own experience. See our calendar for details.
Entrepreneurs Association Distinguished Speaker Series - We bring in CEOs, Entrepreneurs, and successful businessmen into our weekly Wednesday meetings to share their stories, accomplishments, and provide workshops to help students build the skills they will need in the future. Some speakers we have lined up for the Fall of 2015 include Brian Cheng (CEO of Cielo24), Kyle Ashby (Founder of Kaldera and StartupSB), and Daniel Imberman (2015 NVC Winner). Workshops include perfecting elevator pitches, giving effective presentations, learning patent laws, and more!
UCSB Start Up Weekend - The Entrepreneurs Association will be bringing the first ever startup weekend to UCSB on the weekend of January 15th-17th. This will give the opportunity for Entrepreneurs to start a business within a weekend! More information to come soon!
In addition we keep our members aware about events going around on campus and in the local area that we feel will be very beneficial to anyone who participates.
Entrepreneurs association facilitates motivated individuals in their efforts to grow their network, knowledge, and experience at a professional level; our overall mission is to increase our members’ exposure to the professional world.
