Speaking at Tulane’s Entrepreneurship Association

I’m very excited to have been invited to speak next week at the Tulane Entrepreneurship Association (TEA) meeting. Entrepreneurs are exciting to be around, and none are more exciting than MBAs ready to take on the world.

Being invited to speak brought back memories of going to see these types of talks during my days in the entrepreneurship program at the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California. I was there in the heyday of the dot.com era, and we had swashbuckling entrepreneurs marching in telling us how they were going to change the world. Their energy and enthusiasm inspired me to start my first company while getting my MBA.

As I’ve always said, there’s no better time to start a business then while you’re in school and your student loans are paying your bills. As an Internet entrepreneur, the biggest difference is that today, the barriers to entry for starting a business are literally crumbling. There really is no better time than now.

If anybody in the New Orleans area is around next Monday, come by the TEA lecture series and get in on the conversation.
