SUMMARY:The Changing World of Raising Capital
DESCRIPTION:Join Mintz Levin for a discussion about funding your startup\nPanel Discussion With\nDavid Weild IV Chairman & CEO\, Weild & Co.\nRyan Feit CEO and Co-Founder\, SeedInvest\nGreg Brogger CEO\, SharesPost\nDavid Rose CEO and Founder\, Gust\nREGISTER TODAY\nThe world of raising capital for start-up companies has experienced a revolution. Prior to the enactment of the JOBS Act in 2012\, raising capital for private companies was limited to offline communications and was dominated by the professional venture capitalists. Now the capital raising process has been democratized. Capital can be raised online directly by companies or through intermediaries. It can be accomplished by crowd sourcing to “accredited investors” or\, in limited amounts\, by crowd funding to everyone. Additionally\, companies can raise capital in an “IPO lite” manner by using the new Reg A+. \nCome join us on the Columbia University campus for an entertaining evening with a world class panel of the leaders changing the way that capital is being raised for new emerging companies. Co-sponsored by MintzEdge (powered by the law firm of Mintz Levin) and Columbia Technology Ventures\, learn what these innovators in the new world of raising capital are thinking and planning. \nL to R: David Weild IV CEO Weild; Greg Brogger\, CEO SharesPost; David Rose\, CEO Gust; Ryan Feit CEO SeedInvest

SUMMARY:Patents 101
DESCRIPTION:As the Columbia technology transfer experience demonstrates\, patents can provide a successful vehicle for generating research funding for university inventions. Unfortunately\, many seemingly harmless events occurring after the conception of an invention can jeopardize the right to file for a patent. Jeffrey M. Sears\, PhD\, Chief Patent Counsel for Columbia University\, will present a patent law primer focusing on what you need to know to preserve patent protection for your inventions. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER: \nJeff serves as Columbia’s Chief Patent Counsel in the Office of the General Counsel’s Patent and Licensing Group\, where his practice encompasses all aspects of patent law\, including portfolio management\, strategic counseling\, licensing and post-licensing compliance\, litigation\, and legislative and regulatory patent matters. Jeff holds an S.B. in physics from MIT\, an M.A. and Ph.D. in physics from SUNY Stony Brook\, and a J.D. from NYU. He is admitted to practice law in New York and before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

SUMMARY:DEADLINE: Intro to Human-Centered Design; 5 Week Course
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Human-Centered Design\nCourse number: IEME E4200\nFall Semester 2016\, second half\, 5 consecutive Fridays\nNovember 4 – December 9\, 2016\, [9:00 – 12:00 + 1:00 – 2:30]\n0 credit\, P/F on transcript\nClass will meet in CEPSR 750\nAPPLICATION INFORMATION\nStudents must apply for entry into the course by midnight on October 20th. The course begins on November 4 and continues for 5 Fridays until December 9\, 2016.  For more information\, check the Course Description and Syllabus\nThis class is open to graduate students from Columbia Engineering and Columbia Business School\, as well as advanced undergraduate students with permission of instructor. Students from GSAPP and other schools are also welcome to apply to the instructor. Enrollment will be limited to 50 students. Today design has emerged as a key differentiator among the most valuable brands\, products\, and services in the world. The reason for this is customers\, consumers\, constituents\, employees – the users -are now in control. Users are more discerning\, they have more choices and are more comfortable exercising their choice. Users are demanding that their products and services work for them in the fullest sense: that their total experience is as good as it can be. Companies\, other organizations and even governments are finding that they have to address the demands of their users\, and do so with an unaccustomed urgency. If they do not\, their users will exercise their choices and change brand\, change behavior\, or even change their government.

SUMMARY:Natural Vs. Unnatural Acts: What George Bernard Shaw Taught Me About Startups
DESCRIPTION:The Columbia Women Inventors Network and the Columbia Startup Lab present a talk from Michael Sikorsky\, CEO and co‐founder of Robots and Pencils. Michael will talk about what every startup and new venture can learn from the nineteenth century Irish playwright\, critic and polemicist – what are common mistakes people make\, and how to overcome the seduction of unnatural acts. \n\nMicheal Sikorsky\, CEO and Co-Founder\, Robots and Pencils Inc. \nMichael is the CEO and co-founder of Robots and Pencils Inc. With over 20 years of experience creating first-of-its kind software\, he is a renowned strategist\, innovator and pioneer in the mobile tech space. \nAt Robots and Pencils\, Michael leads a world-class team of developers and designers who have created over 250 apps used by 77 million people worldwide. Founded in 2009 with the vision that mobile will be more transformative than the Internet\, the team has built a reputation for creating top-ranking consumer apps\, transformative enterprise apps and world-first learning platforms. With a growth rate of 4971% over five years\, Robots and Pencils was named the 34th fastest growing technology company in North America in 2014. \nMichael credits the success of his company to its secret sauce – a process for following the talent as well as an internal ‘one culture’ partnership between award-winning artists and developers. Everything that Robots and Pencils does starts by blending the sciences with the humanities – the robots with the pencils. No stranger to the spotlight\, Michael has been widely celebrated for his entrepreneurial thinking\, and\, most recently\, he was one of only six in the world invited to the 2014 World Entrepreneur of the Year awards as part of a special citation on global growth. \nDriven by a love of learning and new insights and ideas\, Michael is currently completing executive education programs at the MIT Sloan School of Management and The Columbia Business School.

SUMMARY:BOOK TALK: Capital and the Common Good
DESCRIPTION:Capital and the Common Good\nHow Innovative Finance Is Tackling the World’s Most Urgent Problems\nwith professor\nGeorgia Levenson Keohane\nMonday\, October 17\, 2016\nUris Hall\, Room 332\n6:00 – 8:00 p.m. \nRSVP \nDespite social and economic advances around the world\, poverty and disease persist\, exacerbated by the mounting challenges of climate change\, natural disasters\, political conflict\, mass migration\, and economic inequality. While governments commit to addressing these challenges\, traditional public and philanthropic dollars are not enough. Here\, innovative finance has shown a way forward: by borrowing techniques from the world of finance\, we can raise capital for social investments today. Innovative finance has provided polio vaccines to children in the DRC\, crop insurance to farmers in India\, pay-as-you-go solar electricity to Kenyans\, and affordable housing and transportation to New Yorkers. It has helped governmental\, commercial\, and philanthropic resources meet the needs of the poor and underserved and build a more sustainable and inclusive prosperity. \n \nCapital and the Common Good shows how market failure in one context can be solved with market solutions from another: an expert in securitization bundles future development aid into bonds to pay for vaccines today; an entrepreneur turns a mobile phone into an array of financial services for the unbanked; and policy makers adapt pay-for-success models from the world of infrastructure to human services like early childhood education\, maternal health\, and job training. Revisiting the successes and missteps of these efforts\, Georgia Levenson Keohane argues that innovative finance is as much about incentives and sound decision-making as it is about money. When it works\, innovative finance gives us the tools\, motivation\, and security to invest in our shared future.
