Fubon Center for Technology, Business and Innovation | Tech Leadership Lab

The Fubon Center’s Tech Leadership Lab is a new collaboration between the Center and two MBA student clubs, the Entrepreneurship and Startup Association (ESA) and the Stern Tech Association (STA).

Each year, the leadership of the Center and the student leadership of ESA and STA identify one or more themes to explore — leading-edge topics of active student interest that motivate discussion and inquiry beyond the classroom. Senior business executives, entrepreneurs, VCs and government leaders then participate in the Lab, speaking about one of the year's themes to club members and other Stern stakeholders, then engaging in smaller group discussions in the weeks that follow.

Students reflect and analyze through this journey, considering and reviewing the speaker’s experience and vision more deliberately. Our departure from the traditional arms-length university presentation setting seeds mentorship for the next generation of tech leaders and catalyzes a more nuanced student understanding of influence and success.

The topics for 2024-25 are:

• Tech Product Management When the Product is Artificial Intelligence
• The Leadership Journey in Later-Stage Tech Startups
