UF student group hosts entrepreneurship workshop

In response to the UF Warrington College of Business eliminating its entrepreneurship minor this fall, the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation ambassadors hosted an "Entrepreneurship for Dummies" workshop Tuesday night at Stuzin Hall.

During the first half of the presentation, ambassadors gave presentations about entrepreneurial basics.

The workshop also featured guest speakers Geoff Wilson, CEO of 352 Media Group, and Matt Hintze, CEO of TutoringZone and the GIN System, who talked about business growth and how they started in the business world.

"I want to encourage entrepreneurship ideas and ventures," Wilson said.

Navid Zolfaghari, executive director of the student ambassadors, said he's disappointed that the college cut the minor.

"Entrepreneurship is a way to be innovative and think outside the box," Zolfaghari said.

"It's a mindset, and you come to college to gain a mindset." More than 50 students attended the event.
