Partner of 500 Startups Christine Tsai tells what it takes to be an entrepreneur and the rewarding of work supporting people to build their own tech companies.
The video is part of the curriculum of Technovation Challenge (technovationchallenge.org) , a program that encourages skills in girls that reach beyond traditional, classroom-based computer science (CS) curricula. An interdisciplinary, hands-on focus on applied CS and business encourages students to work as part of a team guided by a professional female mentor to create an original and relevant mobile app. Pitch events challenge the girls further by asking them to communicate their ideas, process, and final product to an audience and panel of experts. To become a mentor or start a team in your area, check out our starter kit and registration page.
