The Kairos Society was founded in May 2008 with the partnering of thirteen of the nation’s top university entrepreneurship organizations, bringing together the most passionate, professionally minded students from across the country in the spirit of entrepreneurship. The summit will unite 500 of the nation’s brightest students and world leaders to celebrate and inspire the growth of young entrepreneurship. It will be a two part event consisting of an unveiling of the top 100 student ventures on Friday night, and a summit dinner on Saturday night, featuring keynote addresses via video from former President William J. Clinton and William Gates Sr., chairman of the Gates Foundation.
The summit is designed to give the chosen entrepreneurial students an opportunity to connect and share ideas with other bright, young minds, provide selected investors with a first look at the companies of tomorrow, and foster relationships between these young entrepreneurs and select professional firms and industry influencers.

Once again, thank you everyone for your continued you support, none of this would be possible without you.
