Eric Welch is an American lawyer who, while a student
in 1997, took East/West Trade and Russian Law in the University of San
Diego's Moscow Institute on International & Comparative Law, a program
managed in Russia by Pericles. Now Eric is directing international programs
for Silicon Valley Launchpad (www.siliconvalleylaunchpad.com)
He is commuting between Silicon Valley and Moscow, setting up small
business incubators and helping internet technology companies find resources
and financing. Looks like the East/West Trade course worked out well
for him!
The University of San Diego's Institute on International
& Comparative Law, in conjunction with Pericles, is offering competitive
scholarships to Russian law students and recently graduated Russian
lawyers who want to study in Eric's course or in any of the other courses
the Institute offers in Barcelona, London, Oxford, Dublin, Paris. Contact
