Leadership
My First Big Gig
A MITX initiative to connect and educate, local universities, students and companies on the opportunities that exist in the Internet business and marketing industry.
Massachusetts and the greater New England Area is recognized as a global hub of innovation, entrepreneurship, and opportunity.
Yet with over 300 schools in the Greater Boston area alone, there appeared to be a disconnect between students, universities and employers; jobs and careers the students didn't realize exist, and students that would've been a perfect fit, if only the hiring company had known about them before they left the area. Our research suggested a need to educate these groups, about the vast network that exists here to support them and the ever evolving opportunities and roles within the Internet business and marketing realm.
That's why MITX has partnered with organizations like Stay In MA, Massachusetts It's all Here, as well as local universities and government - to spread the word about this amazing and vibrant community located here.
We have also launched a student and university digital resource center, filled with information about the Internet business and marketing world, detailed information about the positions that exist today as well as the companies who are looking to hire top talent and the universities that are involved in this industry. Please be our guest, and review the center and ever growing list of connections and information, and should you have other ideas of how we might expand our support of this effort, please contact us at info@mitx.org.
