STVPs Mission
We believe that scientists and engineers need
entrepreneurial skills in order to be successful
in all roles within their organizations.
Therefore, we have created a research center
dedicated to accelerating high-technology
entrepreneurship education and knowledge creation
both at Stanford University and around the world.
We aim to prepare students for leadership
positions in industry, government, education, and
in society as a whole.
