The Stanford Ignite & Seed programs have an exceptional legacy of inspiring innovation and entrepreneurship in extraordinary individuals.
Our director Mark Bouw has dedicated much of his time to supporting these initiative through consulting and mentoring of program participants
The educational mission of Stanford GSB is rooted in the moulding of principled and purposeful leaders who have impact and ignite change for the better. Having partners like Mark that share their time, experience and insights, and that share the program’s mission, is an essential component for making each program a success.
Under this initiative students are helped to learn business concepts that span core business skills and also tactical functional skills, reinforce lessons learned through practical application with team venture projects and learn to successfully present their ideas.
Mark continues to work closely with the Stanford team to foster greatness in the next generation of business leaders.
Mark has provided guidance and insights to program participants, which is essential in creating a strong supportive community of innovative future leaders.
Mark has helped the Ignite programs at Stanford and in London since 2017 and has been championed as an invaluable member of their team.
Since 2021, Mark has been a Consultant for Stanford’s Seed Program, supporting business in the emerging African and Asian economies
“Having partners like you that share their time, experience and insights, and that share our mission, is an essential component for making each Stanford Ignite program a success. Thank you!”
