Episode Description

The Buzz: “The word entrepreneurship has been defined as the 'discovery, evaluation and exploitation of opportunities' but until just a few years ago, saying you were a young entrepreneur was a creative way to say you were in between jobs. Today, entrepreneurs are the modern day rockstars. The story of how Mark Zuckerberg hacked The Crimson at Harvard is a legend amongst millennials. Hustling and side-hustling is no longer just a way to make more money, it can be incredibly fun. "There are so many insanely valuable resources available to entrepreneurs for free these days, you no longer need to ‘take the plunge’ to be an entrepreneur. You can just barely dip your little toe and test the waters. All you’ll lose is the time you invest. It’s not that entrepreneurs didn’t exist before the word claimed the desire of the public, but society now sees a greater value in being your own boss.” (www.futureofeverything.io/ask-thought-leaders-whats-future-entrepreneurship/ June 2017 by Nick Hastreiter) We’ll ask Don DeLoach, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Rocket Wagon Venture Studios, David Friedman, Founder and Chairman of Ayla Networks, Jessica Sobhraj, CEO of Cosynd, and Ron Rock, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Microshare, Inc., for their take on The Future of Entrepreneurship and Technology: When IS The Right Time?
