Continuing with Miami Dade College’s long history as a truly global institution, MDC recently signed an agreement with Israel’s Tel Aviv University. The agreement, between Tel Aviv University’s Entrepreneurship Center (StarTau) and The Idea Center @ MDC will help enhance Miami’s entrepreneurship ecosystem and link Israel’s high-tech and start-up communities to resources and people in Miami.
The agreement between The Idea Center and StarTau will initially focus on three initiatives focused on knowledge-sharing: (1) members of Israel’s high-tech community will travel to Miami for an Innovation Nation conference that connects innovators and leaders of the two high-tech communities; (2) Israeli start-ups will meet Miami investors, designers, and digital marketing firms through a series of programs arranged by The Idea Center; (3) Tel Aviv University faculty will serve as visiting professors at MDC.
StarTau serves Israel’s aspiring entrepreneurs, providing the practical and professional guidance needed by start-ups and early phase business ventures. Its mission is to provide entrepreneurs and students of entrepreneurship with the practical and professional guidance they need to start a successful business venture.
