As a professor, I want to create open source startups with my doctoral (Ph.D.) students. To that end, I have set up courses and a whole program.

In this talk, I'll explain how I try to give my students their Ph.D. and help them turn their research work into a startup. ########### Follow us on Social Media and join the Community!
