The Entrepreneurship Program helps UCSF innovators/entrepreneurs explore the startup business world, essential for commercial success. We inform our scientific and medical community about business planning, testing ideas for commercial potential and investor requirements. Our Silicon Valley location and business community connections bring an unparalleled network to the UCSF ecosystem.
We deliver pragmatic education about entrepreneurship, events featuring life sciences/healthcare business leaders, informal networking get togethers and opportunities for visibility among funders. Experienced industry mentors, ranging from serial entrepreneurs to investors, provide business insights.
The global online entrepreneurship course, Global Life Sciences/Healthcare Entrepreneurship Course: Virtual Master Class Direct from Silicon Valley, has brought best practices from Silicon Valley to 40 countries on six continents. The 10 week, professional online course teaches startup essentials. Cohort 7 begins on October 1, 2025. See our course brochure.

We want to broaden our reach beyond UCSF and know that the more people who engage with different backgrounds, the better the likelihood of useful connections. Events and most trainings are open to UC Berkeley, Stanford and the Silicon Valley business community.
