> there are only two things universities need to change to be perfect at preparing founders: they need to make students feel that starting a startup is something they can do, and they need to encourage them to work on their own projects Don't many universities already do something like this? Pretty sure we had projects where you could either select a project template or propose your own. > Until you've seen some founders in real life, you tend to think that starting startups is something done by other people. Seeing them pops that bubble. I've met a few founders and find that they have a totally different personality to me. Extremely self-assured, decisive, much more focused on the high-level than the low. Often from wealthy or privileged backgrounds where taking risks is... well, less risky.
