To build these pages, we first searched for entrepreneurship organizations, clubs, and classes at Rice. We then pulled the most relevant information from those websites (who the organizations are, the parties they serve, dates of major events, application information, etc) and consolidated this information into a concise Wiki page. We also contacted a few organizations' spokespeople for further information. Specific citations can be found within each organization's unique Wiki page.
