Week 2 Reading Reflection

1.) The biggest surprise from the reading for me was the fact on page 17 that said during the "Great Recession" more Americans became entrepreneurs than at any time in the past 20 years. I would have thought that a recession would decrease the number of people trying to become entrepreneurs.

2.) The part in the reading that confused me was the mentioning of "Venture Financing". To me it wasn't exactly clear what that was.

3.) One question I would ask the author is if they think all the different Entrepreneurial schools-of-thought were necessary, especially the Macro views. What benefits really come from studying this  Another question I would ask is why pick Gazelle's to define business establishments? What is the similarities between the two that makes sense?

4.) The one thing I disagree on with the author is importance of understanding entrepreneur's through the macro view. I don't believe studying the external factors of an entrepreneur's development would provide any insight.

My Entrepreneurship Story and what I want out of ENT3003

One time in my life where I was exposed to entrepreneurship was last last year during the spring semester. During my first week I went to this event called startup hour which was a gathering of a whole bunch of people involved in different startup companies in Gainesville. I talked to two guys who had just graduated from UF and started their own music promotion/ collaboration service. One of them was a Computer Science major and the other a business major but they both liked to produce music in their free time. I remember them telling me how they were very passionate about growing their startup because they knew first hand how hard it was for a new musician to gain exposure on their own. And even though there were other services similar to theirs, they were still going to try and work on it.

The reason I enrolled in ENT3003 is because I have zero understanding of the entrepreneurship process and its concepts. So with this class I would like to gain a grasp on what is means to be an entrepreneur and develop and entrepreneurial mindset. These are two things I think would be beneficial for me to understand when I start my career.
