Entrepreneurship as a Career Option for Physicists

Abstract
In this talk, Iโll share my journey from a PhD in physics to founding a startup. I aim to show that entrepreneurship is a viable and rewarding career path for physicists โ and that you donโt need an MBA , a business-expert partner, or investors to get started. Iโll outline some basic principles for building a startup from scratch. Since I donโt have strong priors on what will resonate most, I plan to leave about 50% of the time for questions and discussion.
Series This talk is part of the Theory of Condensed Matter series.
