SUMMARY:Design For Sustainable Development
DESCRIPTION:OPEN TO ALL \nRSVP HERE \nWednesday\, April 25th \n3:00pm to 5:00pm\nThe Design Studio (Riverside Church Room 430) \nDesign thinking is a process we use at the Design Studio to help students become unstuck in the entrepreneurial ventures they are launching\, or for gaining clarity on their personal trajectory. We also believe that Design Thinking has tremendous potential in helping to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and reduce extreme poverty around the world. \nIn this workshop we will focus on brainstorming\, process mapping and stakeholder analysis and use design to start thinking creatively about developing potential solutions to poverty problems. This workshop will be useful for students who have summer field placements in developing countries or who have job placements abroad after graduation\, or who are just interested in the intersection of design thinking and sustainable development. \nCome prepared to work on development challenges relating to your upcoming field placement/internship. \nIf you have questions\, please reach out to us at designstudio@columbia.edu.

SUMMARY:APPLICATION DEADLINE: Fed Tech Accelerator
DESCRIPTION:Ever wonder what GPS\, the Zika vaccine and Siri all have in common? All were technologies that were initially funded by the U.S. Government before being spun out to industry. Each year Government spends $140 billion+ on research and development that creates many novel technologies that could be breakthrough new ventures.  \nFed Tech is a unique accelerator that connects entrepreneurs to these technologies developed across DoD\, NASA\, DOE\, MIT\, Princeton and other laboratories. The program builds teams from scratch and then guides them through an 8 week cohort where they explore markets\, build business models and learn about how government R&D can become a commercial product.   \nFed Tech is sponsored by the government so there’s no equity to participate. Entrepreneur applications are open through August 8th. The cohort will run from mid September to late November. Participants can be from anywhere but are required to visit D.C for opening and closing sessions. We also intentionally design the cohort to be completed with a “day job\,” asking that you commit an average of 10 hours per week during the 8 week cohort. Our best teams have the chance to enter our Pre-Accelerator post cohort for additional resources.  \nPlease apply on our website or email recruiting@fedtech.io for more information.
