Dear entrepreneurs to be!
Tribe Talks
Many get carried away with this romanticized idea of working for yourself and having your own company. At IB, we teach you that if there is no customer, there is no company. You want to find/encounter a problem, then find a solution for yourself, test a market-product fit BEFORE scaling it. We invited Karim, a fourth-year student and a former Chair of Enactus, to share his journey of becoming a social entrepreneur.
