Introduction to Entrepreneurship

Historically, approximately 50% of Harvard Business School (HBS) graduates become entrepreneurs by the time they are 15 years out of school. Half of this number have started two or more businesses. Most graduates wait until they have a high potential idea they are truly passionate about. Often, such ideas come through in-depth experience in a market and exposure to unsatisfied customer needs – experience that may be tough to get within the bounds of a full-time educational experience. Nevertheless – whether by dint of past experience, summer internship or just good fortune, there are usually at least 100 potential new ventures being explored in any given year. What follows is a list of resources and activities targeted at students actively exploring starting – or buying – your own business. This will be added to Entrepreneurial Resources Subject Tracer™.
