Entrepreneurship story:
When I was in high school my school required students to take on internships, I decided to intern at Venture Hive an entrepreneurship incubator. During my time at venture hive we did many exercises that gave us insight to how companies address issues, create initial products, pivot products to better suit market. One of the key pieces of information that I received during that time was to never be afraid to pivot an idea, because product failures are not the end they can always be used as crucial learning experiences in order to improve in the future.
I enrolled in ENT 3003 because it was a required part of my curriculum for my innovation academy minor. I hope to build upon the entrepreneurship foundation that has been established through my years at my internship as well as my time in my creativity in progress/action class.
Hi Christopher!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a cool opportunity to be a part of in high school! I really wish my high school had that requirement. I am sure it helped you form amazing connections and skills that you are able to pass onto your academic career now. Fear and failure were topics I remember learning about and discussing in a previous IDS class we had to take.Failures are often necessary to create pivotal changes in prototypes and business ideas! I also am taking this for my innovation minor. I am curious to see what kind of skills I will be able to connect to my major from the class.
