World Economic Forum► Entrepreneurship and education are extraordinary

opportunities that need to be leveraged and interconnected if we are to develop the human capital required for building the societies of the future.

► Entrepreneurship is the engine fuelling innovation, employment generation and economic growth

► Only by creating an environment where entrepreneurship can prosper and where entrepreneurs can try new ideas and empower others can we ensure that many of the world’s issues will not go unaddressed.

How?

► Option 1: Encourage lots of experimentation on campus

► Option 2: Have a big vision, followed by a strategic map for how to build a culture of systematic innovation and entrepreneurship

►Works best if the campus has already been experimenting
