Educating Entrepreneurs: Insights From the Big 10

How did you learn to be an entrepreneur? Did you go to business school and get an MBA? Or did you master the art of entrepreneurship the old fashioned way—by the seat of your pants?

We go back to school with the Big 10 in the September 2013 issue of Be Inkandescent. Scroll down to see the top 10 undergrad and top 10 grad programs that focus on entrepreneurialism, courtesy of research by The Princeton Review. Plus, you’ll find interviews with 10 professors and business school students. We also asked 10 entrepreneurs about their educational paths—and the advice they have for you!

Also in this issue:

As we celebrate The Inkandescent Group’s 5th birthday this month, we encourage you to find your inner greatness.Hope Katz Gibbs, publisher, Be Inkandescent • Illustrations by Michael Glenwood Gibbs
