Earlier this year, according to Fortune, a team of six Harvard Business School MBA
students was brainstorming ideas for a new startup business. They came up with
a peculiar takeoff on all the online dating sites: a Facebook application for
Jewish mothers to set their children up with potential marriage material….
With $3,000 of seed capital from Harvard Business School,
Yenta was launched last week along with as many as 150 other new startups in
what might well be the largest single experiment in entrepreneurship ever
undertaken. The so-called "micro-businesses" range from a company
called Kinsey that sells "premium undergarments" for men to another
called 4n Friend that is creating an online network that matches language
tutors with students all over the world.
It's part of a bold and highly unusual initiative within
Harvard's new MBA curriculum…..
