Bootstrap Bootcamp

Description

The Bootstrap Bootcamp came out of a talk on entreperneurship in Jan 2006 at the Austin City Council. I met Rosy Jalifi, who runs the Small Business Development Program for the City of Austin and she suggested a 1-day workshop on bootstrapping, offered to the public. I also taught the Boostrap Principles to 7 students at the Khabele School in the Fall of 2006. In the latter part of 2006, fellow bootstrapper, Josh Shipsey and I decided to work on an online version. This is now offered in collaboration with Josh's company, Communication Simulations at Bootstrap Bootcamp.

• Joshua Shipsey, Communication Simulations - produces and hosts the online Bootcamp
• Khotso Khabele, Khabele School - Bootcamp syllabus taught as an elective for students; facilitated 1-day Bootcamps to the public
