pairs the world's top business, engineering, and science students
together to explore development of new companies.</font> The MIT $50K
judges and its team of mentors have a joint goal to help MIT students
learn about entrepreneurship and start successful companies. The MIT
$50K Mentor Program matches entrant teams with successful business
people that share a common interest and have the skills, contacts or
insight to help a team with their business plan. The result is
tremendous experience for the students and a surprising number of
successful companies launched while students are completing their
degrees.<br>
