We’re looking for Entrepreneurs Among Us

The Babson Entrepreneur Experience Lab is seeking people to take part in a nationwide project that begins late February 2012. Beyond the creation of a new business, we’re seeking individuals and groups who think and act entrepreneurially while working within an existing organization—the entrepreneurs among us in companies, government agencies, non-profits, family businesses, co-operatives, religious organizations, coalitions or unions or self-organizing groups.

Your contribution helps the eLab team map the day-to-day experiences organizational entrepreneurs and to craft a new, more expansive definition of what entrepreneurship is and can be.  As part of the project, you receive compensation for your time, but you will also have access to a small community of like-minded entrepreneurs from around the nation who you can connect with and learn from; it’s a great opportunity to network and to gain insight into and to showcase your own entrepreneurial process. 

To participate, you need to be available from February 27- March 9 and interested in contributing daily to a private community website in the form of short journal-like posts, photo/video uploads and/or group discussions.

The Babson Entrepreneur Experience Lab (a partnership between Babson College and the Business Innovation Factory) is a research platform that puts the voice and experience of real-world entrepreneurs at the center of an ongoing effort to design new education and support solutions for entrepreneurs of all kinds. In our 1st phase of work, we mapped the experiences of 100s of entrepreneurs creating new ventures in the U.S. You can see the results of this effort and learn more about the lab at www.elab.businessinnovationfactory.com
