The energy in the room yesterday was contagious as educators from several countries came together to participate in Babson College’s Certificate in Youth Entrepreneurship Education program. It was incredible hearing their solutions to social problems aligned with the UN Global Goals. Thanks to Lincoln School, Costa Rica for hosting us. Sara Estrada Bernal

Yesterday, the Parent Workshop at Lincoln School, Costa Rica, was an incredible journey in entrepreneurial thinking and acting. The parents created solutions for problems in their local community - ideating, prototyping, and creating customer personas. They were very impressive, and all left the Babson College workshop confident that were entrepreneurs (even if they did not believe that at the beginning of the program). Sara Estrada Bernal

What a season! 🤩 In this final episode of Season 1 of our EPIC Youth podcast, we speak with Babson College MBA alum, Baldev Singh Rawat and Lily Fu of the New England Innovation Academy. It's so rewarding to hear about the impactful work they are doing with their students, teaching them that entrepreneurship isn't just about having an idea, but about embodying entrepreneurial thinking holistically. The EPIC Youth podcast, https://lnkd.in/evqYTmft, has given us such an incredible opportunity to speak to educators, business owners, and future changemakers about the importance of entrepreneurship education, and while this episode signals the end of Season 1, we are well on our way to producing an exciting Season 2! If you'd like to be featured in upcoming episodes of the podcast, please reach out to me directly Beth Goldstein, MBA, EdD. Thank you to all our guests this season on EPIC Youth; we continue to be inspired by the work you all do! Babson College Listen to the entire first season here: https://lnkd.in/evqYTmft

Teaching entrepreneurship to students at an orphanage in India was clearly one of the most rewarding teaching experiences in my career. Thanks to the generosity of a Babson alum, we were able to help cultivate future entrepreneurs. I am so pleased that Babson's Thought and Action publication was able to capture the story.
