This StoryBooth is the latest effort from the new partnership between
Babson and BIF to create an Entrepreneur Experience Laboratory that
will accelerate the design and development of new entrepreneur support
solutions.
Why An Entrepreneur Experience Laboratory?
We believe that the current entrepreneurship support system is
well-intended but insufficient to stimulate entrepreneurial activity at
the scale and scope we need to revive the global economy.
The system needs more than a tweak -- it needs a transformation.
Babson and BIF have embarked on a new partnership to create a real
world laboratory to design, develop and test new entrepreneurship
support solutions and systems.
The Entrepreneur Experience Lab is working to develop a deep and
ongoing understanding of the entrepreneurship experience through the
lens of the entrepreneur and use that understanding to create a platform
to design and test new entrepreneurship solutions and systems.
In its first phase, the Lab team is working with entrepreneurs from
all walks of life, at all stages of development and from every region in
the United States to create a first
person characterization of the national entrepreneurial experience.
Building on this new map of the entrepreneur experience, the team is
creating a prioritized list of opportunities where the experience can be
enhanced to accelerate new venture creation.
In parallel, the Lab team also is establishing a functional lab
environment where new ideas can be developed, designed and tested in
real world environments. This work will lay the foundation for creating a
real world laboratory for systemic experimentation, where programs and
services can be developed and tested within an integrated, real world
environment.
