This annual event brings together outstanding entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and related professionals from Silicon Valley, California, and top MBA students, for a full day of stimulating and challenging debate and discussion. Meet Paul Graham founder of Y-Combinator, Chris Sacca head of special initiatives at Google, Ried Hoffman founder of Linked in and many more of the Silicon Valley entrepreneurs.

The Garage Session

Many Silicon Valley companies got started in a garage (HP, Google, Apple included) and it could be argued that the whole Silicon valley technical economy was started in a garage. So, inspired by the garage, the Business School will once again create a garage for the SVCO event where students, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists can work in a structured way on real business problems. Last year these problems were set by Google, LinkedIn and the Business School.

For the first time Oxford Entrepreneurs takes control of the garage session from 10:00-12:00. We have limited spaces for students wanting to help with a real business problem or to suggest their own to help solve

There are limited places in the OE garage session - Register your interest for this session using the form below and we will confirm allocation of places nearer the time

Young Entrepreneurs Panel

This year four Oxford Entrepreneurs return to the school to discuss their experiences of starting up in the valley. Come join some of the founding members of Oxford Entrepreneurs and Jerry Sanders, Paul Graham, Jessica Livingston and Biz Stone in this free-form panel discussion.
