 Entrepreneurs: Born or Made?
If the answer is BORN
• then we can identify the main characteristics
• if we have them, fine - no others need to apply!
• we could start spotting talent in kindergarten
• we could "stream" these people
• we could discourage people without these
talents
Assume the answer is MADE
• then schools could teach anyone
• would be a "profession" like law or medicine
• companies could establish "nurseries" for them
• government "incubators" would be successes
