“It is hard to find people in business who embody a combination of creative and management skills. It’s a unique and powerful combination that typically leads to success.

It is far easier to teach a creative person the fundamentals of business than it is to teach a business person how to be creative. Therefore, the School for Creative Startups is in a unique position to develop a group of powerful future business leaders.”
