092 | The Power of Entrepreneurship in Education with Ruby Xun & Melissa Liang

We’re talking to Ohio State graduates, Ruby Xun and Melissa Liang, who reached the finale of Best of Student Startups (BOSS) last year. 

While Covid-19 derailed execution plans for their sustainable fashion platform, Twirl, the applied learning experience at BOSS endowed them with useful insights for creating, maintaining, and growing a business. 

We imagine the different ways entrepreneurship could be integrated into a high-school program, and how familiarizing students with everyday business skills earlier on could help navigate a future in a way that textbooks and blackboards cannot.

We unbox:

1. Why BOSS is so special for learning entrepreneurship skills

2. The learning experience at BOSS

3. The creative concept behind Twirl

4. Why teaching entrepreneurship in high-school is important
