Heard of Hult?

Have you heard of Hult International University? I hadn’t either, but on March 7 I had the privilege of addressing a group of talented master’s-level business students there. One of those students, Pearl Budu, was in-country tour coordinator when Aaron and I visited Ghana in 2011. Now she is at Hult University San Francisco studying for a master’s degree in international business. Pearl invited me to the school to discuss my experiences in entrepreneurship and international business, so how could I refuse? Since I was in SF anyway for the U-M Center for Entrepreneurship West Coast Startup Trek (a.k.a Weather Underground Startup Trek 2013), I made the time to visit Hult and address a group of very motivated, very talented, very international students.

By way of information, Hult University bills itself as the world’s most international business school. Hult has campuses in five cities: Boston, San Francisco, London, Shanghai, and Dubai. For more information, see www. Hult.edu.

I enjoyed very much talking with the Hult SF students. After the lecture, I retreated with several of them to Il Fornaio restaurant for a relaxed dinner and discussion. All in all, a productive, fun, and enlightening evening.
