I found Chris' combining his experiences as a serial deep tech entrepreneur with a broad survey of views on the nature of successful startups to be both inspirational and instructive. Any first time founder would be lucky to participate in his bootcamp while starting something new.

”
There being no book for successful startup founders, the course by Chris Rowen offers the closest to such a book - providing guidance based on rich, successful experience from a seasoned, successful entrepreneur who is highly respected in Silicon Valley for Deep-Tech startup stewardship (MIPS, Tensilica and BabbleLabs).

The Startup Bootcamp provided excellent coverage of what does it mean to do a startup, providing insights into many of the things you think you already knew, in a clear and interactive format. I highly recommend for anyone thinking about doing a startup or in the middle of one.

Chris' experience as a serial entreprenuer and inventor of several successful startups, coupled with his oratory skills and ability to articulate complex concepts incredibly clearly, makes this course very attractive for anyone thinking of starting a company or joining a startup.

”
"Engineer your startup, not just your tech." - a bit cheeky? Maybe, but the course certainly delivers. We come out of the course with both eagerness and knowledge on how to do a startup with all the ingredients for a decent chance of success. Why? The bootcamp provides structure and cohesion on the startup topic in a straightforward, easy-to-follow narrative with industry veterans, while bringing together a diverse set of people in a similar predicament.
