We are a community of over 1000 individuals and organizations helping to develop entrepreneurial leaders that are creating a better future. EFN, a non-profit volunteer-based organization, was launched in 2003 by business pioneers in clean and high-tech ventures, several lecturers in a technology venture design class in UC Berkeley's College of Engineering, and leaders from the non-profit and governmental sectors . Since 2004, EFN has supported entrepreneurial programs at Stanford, UC Berkeley and Global Social Venture Competition.
