SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
Join your peers for the next SEI Houston Chapter Luncheon Technical Session:
"Starting an Engineering Firm - Experience Sharing"
It is a daunting idea for many engineers to consider starting their own engineering companies. In their mind, they think the stake is high and the uncertainty is very certain. Two common questions will be continuously addressed throughout this presentation - what is it like to start your own engineering firm? And what are the challenges for an ordinary engineer when she/he started an engineering company?
Warren Kuo, the founder of MCT Engineering Inc, will share his experience on running an engineering firm in the last 5 years. He is going to share his first-hand experience on his start-up journey, what strategy works and what might not work, the challenges of getting the first projects, the challenges of running a company, how to utilized his engineering skills to find the niche in this ever-changing market, and more.
