“Can you teach someone to be an entrepreneur?” Paul Jerde, the Executive Director of the Deming Center is often asked, “Can you really teach entrepreneurship?” Paul is the keynote speaker at the Rockies Venture Club monthly program, “Pathway to Entrepreneurship – the Challenges and the Choices”.
He will speak about the influence and pervasiveness of entrepreneurship as the engine of innovation and change in our business world and society in general, and about the ingredients of an entrepreneurial community - why are Boulder and the front range of Colorado along with Silicon Valley and other known hotbeds of entrepreneurship so “friendly” to entrepreneurs?
Paul will share the approach that is taken to educating young entrepreneurs and the many paths that graduating students take in applying their entrepreneurship education whether it’s by launching their own startup or by joining an entrepreneurial team.
He feels strongly that entrepreneurship education is the true capstone integration of all of the traditional business disciplines – finance, marketing, management, and others. It is as much about a mindset as a skill set and many of the lessons learned by educators will be applicable to you in your business as well.
Larry Nelson, co-founder of w3w3.com will be introducing Paul. Larry is a serial entrepreneur that has lived in and has owned businesses in five foreign countries. He said, “The school of hard knocks is the way I went, but I sure wish back then there was a Deming Center as an alternative.”
