If you’re reading this, you’re more than likely an entrepreneur, a student, an employee who wants to be an entrepreneur, or a disillusioned entrepreneur who wants to be an employee (you now know Ideate’s target market segmentation).
Either way, you should read this article on CNNmoney.com – it’s a list of 30 entrepreneurs through the ages who have paved the way we do business today. From Edison, Carnegie and Henry Ford to eBay’s Pierre Omidyar, Jeff Bezos and Steve Jobs – it’s a list that makes for some inspiring reading.
Personally, I would have liked to have seen some more leftfield selections (like the dude who invented the wind-up radio), but it’s compelling nonetheless.
