Many new businesses are started every year, so receiving external input can give you an advantage when beginning your own entrepreneurial venture. A good way is to start looking around you. Is there an entrepreneur you know who you would like to hear insights from? For this assignment, arrange for an interview with that entrepreneur and prepare thoughtful questions to ask. This will be helpful in the course as you work on your Business Model project.
