Start Small, Finish Big
The path to launching something new often begins with an idea and modest means at the disposal of the entrepreneur. Therefore most successful entrepreneurial ventures tend to "Start Small" and hope to finish "Finish Big". The journey in between includes building a team, developing a compelling product or service, obtaining funding, and finally bringing the product to market. The 2006 Wharton Entrepreneurship Conference seeks to present these stories to the entrepreneurial community in a manner that is relevant to today's entrepreneurs. A tentative agenda is presented below:
