WashU Olin: How to Get an MBA and Start a Business at the Same Time
November 3 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
What gives a founder—and a new venture—the footing to succeed? At Olin, we believe it starts with falling in love with a problem. It takes the ambition to imagine what could be different, the business fundamentals to build a viable path forward, and the right connections to test, strengthen and grow an idea.
Join Professor of Practice in Entrepreneurship Doug Villhard and three Olin students and recent alumni who have built companies while pursuing—or shortly after completing—their MBAs. Through their stories, explore how founders stay focused on the problem as their solutions evolve, pair vision with strong business fundamentals and use close connections, candid feedback and access to funding to gain traction. They’ll also share why St. Louis and Olin create a powerful environment for turning entrepreneurial ambition into action.
Live Q&A included.
