The point about bringing non-EA entrepreneurs into EA is a good one (I think—but I think that I think that because I have also been thinking about it recently!). One idea I’ve had is whether or not it’d be worth hosting some type of conference where we bring together HEA university students with enterprising and ambitious (not required) business school students to exchange ideas and brainstorm, with the aim of allowing co-founder pairs to enter some type of competition with seed-funding as the prize

Great idea, at TFG we have similar thoughts and are currently researching the best way to run a program like this. Feel free to PM to provide input.
