Yale Entrepreneurial Institute

I am preparing to write my first business plan. This podcast was extremely helpful and I will refer to it many, many times during the writing process. Thank you!

If you’re not in Yale or Ivy League circles, there’s not much pertinent material here. The show lost me at “I recruited partners for my startup from all my friends in my Yale class”.

Don't think so much. Just do it. Overconfident liars are often the best hearted and most successful, in the end. And from a great engineer, on sensitive programmers... "Don't say that my baby's ugly, just tell me it has a unibrow, that I should tend to."

There are some really good ones here and some ones that you might want to skip if you already have some experience as an entrepreneur. The "What Angel Investors Want" was particularly good while listening to first time student startup execs pontificate in "Lessons Learned as a Student Entrepreneur" was a little like getting dating advice from a middle schooler. All in all, an excellent collection and I'm very thankful to Yale and the speakers for their insights.
