Your life today would probably be very different if it weren’t for entrepreneurs—past and present. What if Steve Jobs had decided to become a dentist or Jeff Bezos had taken a job as an accountant instead of founding Amazon? Just as entrepreneurs have shaped our past, new entrepreneurs are shaping our future, and most of these innovators started out as small business owners.
In this written assignment, you will research a small business entrepreneur who is influencing not just the world you live in today, but also the world you will live in tomorrow.
1. Select an individual who has successfully established a small business.
2. Write a one- to two-page paper about this entrepreneur. Your paper should include the following elements:
a. General background information about the entrepreneur.
b. Specific information about the product, service, or industry with which the entrepreneur is involved, has founded or plans to develop in the future.
c. How the entrepreneur’s innovations, products, services, or goods have already affected our lives.
d. How the entrepreneur’s innovations, products, services, or goods might affect our lives in the coming years.
Be sure to include all sources, including in-text citations and a bibliography, in the proper formats.
