Class 16: October 8, 2026 · ENTR 5500

Workday reminder for October 8, 2026. These instructions come from the October 6 class summary. For current requirements and due dates, use the assignment guidelines and semester schedule.

Independent entrepreneur-interview workday

Thursday, October 8 was a group workday with no regular classroom meeting. Follow the October 6 instructions and work with your entrepreneur-interview group.

Choose one group member to post an end-of-day update in your project channel, @mentioning John. Include:

  • What your group accomplished.
  • Interview progress or scheduling progress.
  • Questions, blockers, or help you need.

Use the time to move the interview forward. Prepare who will ask which questions, test your recording setup, and confirm that the audio can be heard. If the interview is complete, begin identifying entrepreneurial themes supported by what the entrepreneur actually said. Keep the recording and transcript accessible to the group; the interview kit links the current guidance.

For Tuesday, October 13, read Financing Entrepreneurial Ventures in the HBS coursepack. Keep the Odeo financing examples handy for the workshop. Use the current schedule and eLC for later quiz announcements; this reminder does not create or revise a quiz deadline.
