TiE Institute
TiE Institute programming is geared toward early-stage entrepreneurs who are looking for instructional, practical, and real-world learning as well as interactive sessions with fellow members of the TiE community. These can be entrepreneurs with a simple idea to those with a developed product who haven’t raised funding yet.

Under these series of events, we work with our sponsors from law firms, venture capitalists, accounting firms, banks, etc. to incorporate sessions for entrepreneurs to get IPO ready.
