YNR Social hour went well
We had the fourth YNR social event for entrepreneurs on Thursday at Hand in Hand (in Virginia Highlands) and I was really impressed with how many people showed up. It was a very Emory-centric crowd for geographical reasons as well as due to the GT business plan competition on the same day. But all in all, I think there were 30+ people there.
I also found out that one engineer had actually found consulting employment with another entrepreneur he met at a previous YNR meeting. So I guess these things are actually starting to work…

But then both of us went through one year programs (he went to INSEAD) and we both started companies prior to getting our MBAs. Maybe starting a company as an admission requirement into b-school would help generate better business leaders.
