Throughout this 1ntroductory lesson on entrepreneurship, it is important for students to begin to understand the VentureLab approach to entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship is traditionally related to setting up a company and entrepreneurs are the people that bring the resources together to set up the company and make a profit. When you introduce the lesson to students it is likely that they will have this type of understanding of entrepreneurship. While setting up and running companies is part of entrepreneurship, at VentureLab we believe that it is much more than this.
We aim to give young people the opportunity to experience and develop an entrepreneurial way of thinking and behaving that will be valuable to them whichever career path they choose. It is important to emphasize that this lesson and the rest of the VentureLab lessons will help them experience and develop their entrepreneurial skills and way of thinking—rather than the specifics of creating a business or starting and running a company.
