Female: People are having to start businesses out of necessity in a lot
of cases, especially young people because youth underemployment
and unemployment is at an all-time high. For young people,
there's a lot of opportunities in their careers if they can
create a business, but that's a really scary idea for a lot of
young people to say, "I've got all this student debt and now I'm
going to start a business. How do I do that?" That's where
organizations like the YEC come in.
Entrepreneurship isn't just the Steve Jobs' of the world. It's
not about finding the next Facebook as it so often becomes
about, especially when you look into startups, raising
investment funding, and all that. That's sexy entrepreneurship
to a lot of people. That's not 99% of entrepreneurs and business
owners. Those are the ones that I really want to work with,
because there's a lot of potential there.
