EntrepreneurFest '99 with Robert Metcalfe
Saturday, June 26 at 11:30 AM at 3COM in Santa Clara
- EntrepreneurFest serves as a celebratory culmination to the
club's entrepreneurship activities for the year as well as a
celebration of MIT alumni/ae entrepreneurship in Northern
California. Last year, EntrepreneurFest '98 featured a keynote
address by MIT President Charles Vest, technology and product
demos by 21 up and coming local MIT companies, and over 300
attendees who came to Xerox PARC to see what new companies and
technologies their classmates were creating.
- EntrepreneurFest is back for 1999 bigger and better than ever.
This year, EntrepreneurFest is hosted by 3COM Corp. and
features Dr Robert Metcalfe, 3Com's founder, as its keynote
speaker. Also featured will be over 30 MIT companies
demonstrating the technologies around which their companies
are being built.
- The MITCNC is honored to have Dr Robert Metcalfe as its keynote
speaker and honored guest for EntrepreneurFest '99. Returning
home to 3Com, the company he founded in 1979, Metcalfe will
speak about his experiences founding 3Com, entrepreneurship,
and his vision for the future.
- Metcalfe graduated from MIT with dual degrees in Management
and Electrical Engineering in 1968. He went on to receive
both an M.S. degree in Applied Mathematics and a Ph.D. in
Computer Science from Harvard University. Since then, he has
become one of the chief forces behind the revolution in
computer technology that has shaped, and continues to shape,
our daily lives. In 1973, he began his auspicious career at
Xerox PARC by inventing the Ethernet, which now connects more
than 100 million computers worldwide. In 1979, he formed 3COM
Corporation, which became a multi-billion dollar networking
company, from which he retired in 1990.
- More recently, Metcalfe has served as Publisher and CEO of
InfoWorld Publishing Company from 1992-1994; his popular column,
From the Ether, appears in InfoWorld magazine and is read by
more than a half a million people each week. In 1996, Metcalfe
was awarded the prestigious IEEE Medal of Honor and was
subsequently elected to the National Academy of Engineering
in 1997. He is currently the Vice President at IDG.
- EntrepreneurFest '99 will also showcase over 30 private MIT
companies. Company representatives will be on hand to provide
technology and product demos, network, and recruit. Come and
find out what hot new technologies are developing. Catch a
glimpse of the next wave of great Silicon Valley companies
being created by MIT alumni/ae. You are sure to see some new
technology, see old friends, and perhaps come away from the
Fest with your next job/investment/client or even new company
idea! Join us for a very special event to celebrate MIT
entrepreneurship in Northern California.
