One thing we’ve noticed after interacting with countless entrepreneurs from around the world, is that often the drive to innovate and to pursue independence starts at a young age. You could almost say that entrepreneurship is something that comes from within, and that people who join the Gig Economy are as likely to do so because of an innate need to create as much as for any practical reasons.
If you have that inner passion but aren’t sure how to take the leap, or if you are wondering how we can foster entrepreneurship in the next generation then here are a few articles for inspiration.
