In the past decade, entrepreneurship has taken the world by storm, and is suddenly viewed as a “cool career” in the United States. To adapt to this change, entrepreneurship programs are booming in US colleges, where enrollments are increasing at a dramatic rate.

No amount of education would have groomed him the way his personal life experiences did.

But will he be able to leverage his resilience and sturdiness to make his entrepreneurial dream a reality?
