Students have ample opportunities to learn about these past success stories. Just last weekend, the second annual “Startup Bootcamp” featured 10 leaders of successful startups, some of which came out of MIT. A week earlier, a new three-day workshop called “t=0” was held on campus, providing a hands-on opportunity for students to form teams and brainstorm new business ideas with the help of successful alumni-entrepreneurs including Mitch Kapor GM ’81, the founder of Lotus Development (now part of IBM).
