google 翻译自视频简介:

在这次演讲中,我将与大家分享从学术界创办公司的挑战和经验教训。我曾在刚毕业的博士生(第一次创业)和教授(第二次和第三次创业)期间共同创办过公司。 一路走来,我学到了很多宝贵的经验,也从我的导师和其他很多创业导师身上学到了很多东西。 此外,我还将与大家分享一些后勤问题,如与大学的知识产权问题、联合创始人或早期员工的签证问题、资金筹集等。 最后,我还会邀请我现在公司的两位创始成员(一位是我以前的博士生,有很好的论文发表记录,另一位是 UIUC 著名建筑学教授的博士毕业生,也有很好的论文发表记录)与大家分享他们为什么选择加入创业公司,以及他们目前从创业公司中学到了什么。 欢迎大家也邀请自己的博士生或博士后。
