LBS Faculty Insight Series: Funding Innovation

An invitation from the LBS Alumni Club Faculty Insight Series: Funding Innovation with John Mullins (Associate Professor, LBS)

A widely accepted notion in entrepreneurial circles is that the way to start and grow a thriving business is to come up with a great “idea”, write a compelling business plan, raise capital from angels or VCs, flawlessly execute the plan, and (Voila!) get rich! But it rarely happens this way, and the vast majority of successful businesses don’t ever raise venture capital. Angels who make money don’t invest this way either!

Join fellow alumni to hear John Mullins separate myth from reality in the new venture funding arena and propose a better way forward for funding innovation wherever it occurs.
