A propos de cet article

ABOUT THE BOOKEXTREME ENTREPRENEURSHIP: From war zones to jungles to slums to where capitalism is illegal, this book contains true stories of people making their startups work in some of the most challenging contexts. Written by an award-winning professor at a top-ranked entrepreneurship school based on his interviews with startup founders in some of the more than 120 countries he has visited, there are no Silicon Valley stories of free office perks here. Instead, you can expect to find uniquely inspiring stories and universal lessons about life and business from interesting people and places around the world.This book will provide you with: (1) life and business tips and inspiration, provided from a fresh perspective;(2) immediately actionable ideas, including intriguing ways of overcoming obstacles related to food, water, education, energy, the environment, employment, travel, startups, entrepreneurship, meeting people, and more;(3) insight into the mindsets of people who see and create opportunities and successfully execute to make the most of those opportunities; and(4) interesting background information on people and places around the world, providing a dose of context and entertainment.Whether it is a pioneering school for the differently-abled in Peru, or nurturing local food economies with solar mini-grids in Madagascar, or rainforest stewardship in Colombia and Suriname, or startups in the wake of genocide in Timor-Leste, or sparking the rebirth of a former industrial town in the United States, you will read here stories of folks tackling tough problems with few resources. Published in book format for the first time, the author expertly presents these stories and others in what can be described as a stylistic blend of Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown and NPR's How I Built This.
