Teaching Our Next Generation Of Entrepreneurs

The perception of entrepreneurial opportunities and the capacity to exploit them are strongly associated with social norms that encourage venturing, such as the availability of risk capital, access to developing technologies, a quality diverse entrepreneurship education system and a sound professional infrastructure.

Entrepreneurship education, at all levels, could very effectively prepare and train students to start and manage new businesses. This type of education is strong and getting stronger in business schools across the country, but it needs to proliferate outside of the business domain. Very few students undertake business subjects, and not every business school student is required to or chooses to take up an entrepreneurship course.
