Listen "Speaking Startup: What gives, millennial entrepreneurs?"
Episode Synopsis
Millennials are the target of plenty of criticism. Other generations say they're narcissistic, need constant validation and overspend on avocado toast.
A critique less frequently leveled against the generation is its lack of entrepreneurial inclination. But some research published by the Small Business Administration suggests millennials are the least entrepreneurial generation in a century.
On this week's podcast, we dig into that idea, looking at some of the numbers on entrepreneurship by generation and exploring the gap between millennials' desire and ability to start a business.
Plus, with economic fallout from the coronavirus forcing late cuts to Missouri's 2021 budget, the Missouri Technology Corp. stands to lose $1 million in state funding. We discuss the latest in series of funding cuts over the last few years could mean for the private-public partnership and its efforts to support technology entrepreneurs in the state.
