Stanford Ignite Goes To India

By TechTaffy Desk

The Stanford Graduate School of Business started its first part-time Stanford Ignite certificate program in innovation and entrepreneurship in Bangalore.

Aimed at non-business technical professionals, the program employs Stanford GSB professors on the ground as well as faculty beamed in from Silicon Valley, and is taking place over nine weeks at the Infosys corporate campus. 

Stanford Ignite will be offered to a European audience for the first time in Paris through Stanford Ignite-Polytechnique September 19–November 17, and in China in 2014. The program also is offered at Stanford.
