Entrepreneurs

Select any 3 Entrepreneurs that interest you, EXCEPT Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, or Mark Zuckerberg.

You will write about WHY and HOW you think they are Entrepreneurs.  You will also state hard facts that make them Entrepreneurs.  Simply, your discussion must have proof they are SOLVING PROBLEMS and MAKING MONEY (OR, at least funded by sources that offer them the financial backing to benefit others lives like many non-profit organizations).

The broadest, most simple definition of Entrepreneurship is:

  • A person or team who finds problems, conflicts, or needs AND sets out to resolve them.
  • They succeed in resolving 1 or many problems\conflicts\needs.
  • They make money, either directly with the people the problems or needs are serving, OR indirectly from others who financially support their efforts (non-profits)

One example: Steve Jobs supported the technical problem or need to have high-quality, compact computers for businesses and individuals.  He was directly supported financially by individual retail and business consumers; however, he had to have finances to develop and start his business venture.  He received a lot of funds from partners and business relationships.

You CANNOT use Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, or Mark Zuckerberg as one of your entrepreneurs in your discussion post.
