Wharton MBA Students Promote Social Entrepreneurship

A growing number of Wharton MBA students and faculty are taking the lead in exploring new approaches to social entrepreneurship.  Within the classroom, student groups develop their own business venture plans, which will ideally become real-world businesses. Within the Philadelphia community, students provide strategic guidance to non-profit boards. Highlights of these activities are detailed in a recent Wharton news release.

"The Essence of Survival"

Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest Lion
or it will be killed.

Every morning in Africa, a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death.

It doesn’t matter whether you are a Lion or a Gazelle: When the sun comes up, you had better be running!

This sounds like a great program. Starting a business is so much more involved than just coming up with an idea and selling a product or service. Teaching students how to connect with the right resources and developing a detailed business plan will surely help most of them succeed.
