OVERVIEW
Our Consultation Programs
The MIT Enterprise Forum of Israel consultation programs provide high-tech entrepreneurs and start-up companies with the unique opportunity to consult with experienced entrepreneurs and leading specialists in their respective fields on strategy and business issues. As part of our consultation process we organize meetings and dedicated brainstorming panels featuring some of the most authoritative experts in Israel and worldwide.
A panel usually includes an expert with a strong technology background in the field in which the company is active, a manager (CEO or VP) from a successful company that operates in the same or a relevant business environment, a representative of the target market and a VC who can advise the company regarding its financial strategy. The allocation of experts to the panel is done in collaboration with the subject entrepreneur or company.
