Hey guys,
I've only just realised that Comp Soc has gone dormant, what a shame - I was wondering what happened to all the emails I used to get, even after I left Oxford a few years back. Anyway, if you guys still have a mailing list I have something that may be of interest:
The guys I work with are targeting graduating students who are hoping to build technology based startups and offering investment and an incubation program that runs for 2 months over the Summer. We are a team of four Balliol alumni who have been working in startups since graduation and looking to help other Oxford students take the leap into entrepreneurship.
We're offering £5k to 2 to 3 teams, along with office space and mentoring to help them build their companies. This is targeted towards graduating studnets, but if someone has a blinding idea we'd love to hear it.
See www.betafoundry.com for more.
Best,
James
