We provide intellectual capital for
entrepreneurs lacking education and
           experience.
Let’s take a dive in the shark
             tank!


           Danger: Do not swim with the sharks!
Entrepreneurial Needs
• Leadership training
• Discover a working business model
• Business networking and relations (consumers,
  suppliers, competitors, and customers)
• Moral and social values (stress societal benefits)
• Persistence (overcome adversity)
• Promote creativity (encouragement)
• Knowledge management (how to use)
Entrepreneurial Needs
• Active learning (learn on the job)
• Experiential learning (by learning how to use
  functions taught in business schools; help from
  an experienced business coach)
• Identifying and interacting with stakeholder
  groups
• Environmental scanning (political, economic,
  social, technological, environmental, and legal)
• Divergence (promoting thinking outside the box)
• Online presence (easy access to help)
Traditional Education Programs for
            Entrepreneurs
• Business planning skills (research and business
  plans)
• Specific business skills (finance, marketing,
  and operations)
• Passive classroom learning (accessed when
  available)
• Incidental services (the entrepreneur may not
  need but pays for)
• Convergence (tunnel vision)
What to Expect
• Learn how to feed the sharks and make them hungry
  and competitive. Do not swim with them as they will
  eat you.




• Build a sustainable business
• Don’t give your business away by swimming in shark
  infested waters
