Bagley - Faculty Research Page "I've heard many war stories," says Harvard Business School associate professor Connie Bagley, reflecting on conversations with former students who have started business ventures. To prepare current students for the HBS Business Plan Contest, Bagley gives a seminar in which she shares these war stories with the prospective entrepreneurs, in the form of a list of "top ten" legal mistakes often made by the unsuspecting. In addition, Bagley teaches the second year elective course, "Legal Aspects of Entrepreneurship," which covers the waterfront of issues typically faced by entrepreneurs in starting and running a business, including securities and intellectual property law issues. Bagley's teaching and research focus on legal aspects of entrepreneurship and corporate governance. Before coming to HBS in 2000, she taught at Stanford Business School, and prior to that she was a corporate securities partner in the San Francisco office of the law firm of Bingham McCutchen.

Next Meeting: Tuesday, June 3, 2008 "Exit Strategies: Cashing In" Creating a business so that it will become well positioned to be acquired is a smart plan and a very well-regarded business model that is highly attractive to investors. Mergers and acquisitions are the dominant path to liquidity for most companies. Being able to plan for this exit requires market and business insight and a path for technical accomplishment that will be compelling to leading commercial partners as acquirers. Tonight our speakers will talk about what companies have done early on to "position" for their exit and how they appealed to the right buyer. They will emphasize the preparation, structuring, and negotiations and how to make the best possible deal. Subscribe to receive meeting and event announcement notices from the Boston ENET.

Just as business entrepreneurs create and transform whole industries, social entrepreneurs act as the change agents for society, seizing opportunities others miss in order to improve systems, invent and disseminate new approaches and advance sustainable solutions that create social value. Unlike traditional business entrepreneurs, social entrepreneurs primarily seek to generate "social value" rather than profits. And unlike the majority of non-profit organizations, their work is targeted not only towards immediate, small-scale effects, but sweeping, long-term change. "Social entrepreneurs identify resources where people only see problems. They view the villagers as the solution, not the passive beneficiary. They begin with the assumption of competence and unleash resources in the communities they're serving."

Save By JOHN MARKOFF Published: November 12, 2006 Referred to as Web 3.0, the effort is in its infancy, and the very idea has given rise to skeptics who have called it an unobtainable vision. But the underlying technologies are rapidly gaining adherents, at big companies like I.B.M. and Google as well as small ones. Their projects often center on simple, practical uses, from producing vacation recommendations to predicting the next hit song. But in the future, more powerful systems could act as personal advisers in areas as diverse as financial planning, with an intelligent system mapping out a retirement plan for a couple, for instance, or educational consulting, with the Web helping a high school student identify the right college.

Europe's Young Entrepreneurs Governments, too, are waking up to the job-creating capacity of startup businesses. The European Commission is spurring high schools across the 25-nation bloc to offer courses in business, including encouraging students to set up small companies. Initial studies suggest that up to 20% of students enrolled in such courses try to start their own businesses after graduation. GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE. One advantage many European entrepreneurs seem to enjoy is a more global perspective. Many are multilingual and have lived or worked abroad. "We are starting to see very interesting companies forming that are capable of competing on a global basis from day one," says Danny Rimer, general partner at venture capital firm Index Ventures in Geneva. "It's partly generational, but also a case of success breeding success. Companies like Skype have served as an inspiration to a whole generation." Since the middle of the summer, BusinessWeek.com has set out to find the best examples of this new European spirit. We asked readers to nominate outstanding entrepreneurs age 25 or younger, and now we present the candidates in a

58. Social Business Entrepreneurs Are The Solution In this narrow interpretation we create a onedimensional human being to play the role of entrepreneur. We insulate him from other dimensions of life, http://www.grameen-info.org/bank/socialbusinessentrepreneurs.htm

Social Business Entrepreneurs Are the Solution Muhammad Yunus Capitalism is Interpreted too Narrowly Many of the problems in the world remain unresolved because we continue to interpret capitalism too narrowly. In this narrow interpretation we create a one-dimensional human being to play the role of entrepreneur. We insulate him from other dimensions of life, such as, religious, emotional, political dimensions. He is dedicated to one mission in his business life to maximize profit. He is supported by masses of one-dimensional human beings who back him up with their investment money to achieve the same mission. The game of free market works out beautifully with one-dimensional investors and entrepreneurs. We have remained so mesmerised by the success of the free market that we never dared to express any doubt about it. We worked extra hard to transform ourselves, as closely as possible, into the one-dimensional human beings as conceptualised in theory to allow smooth functioning of free market mechanism. Economic theory postulates that you are contributing to the society and the world in the best possible manner if you just concentrate on squeezing out the maximum for yourself. When you get your maximum, everybody else will get their maximum.
