The document summarizes an entrepreneurship presentation given by Julie Meyer on the future of entrepreneurship. Some key points from the presentation include: 1) Entrepreneurs are well-positioned to understand how markets are evolving by being "in the eye of the storm" of daily market changes. 2) Factors like open source software, cloud applications, voice interfaces, and a global flow of talent are changing the business landscape for entrepreneurs. 3) European governments need to support rather than hinder entrepreneurs by reducing taxes and regulations in order to help drive economic growth. 4) Entrepreneurs who take risks to create new products and start new companies despite challenges should be admired.

23. ‘ The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena’ “ It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasm, the great venture and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” - Theodore Roosevelt
