My absence yesterday and light posting generally recently can be attributed to a last-second push to prepare a grant application for the Kauffman Foundation. We are competing in this program for some dollars to take entrepreneurship education campus-wide.
I spent last night and this morning in Kansas City as part of the Wisconsin team that was pitching our plan to the Kauffman judges. I have no idea whether we will get the money, but we learned a lot about ourselves and about entrepreneurship during the past few months. Moreover, we now have a plan for building on the success of INSITE. I just wanted to say that I am impressed with the zeal of the Kauffman Foundation in promoting entrepreneurship. For those of you who are on the outside looking in, entrepreneurship people may seem like a strange subculture, but animating their actions is a deep conviction that entrepreneurship can change the world for the better. I enjoy being part of something like that.
