About Dr. Jerald Feinstein/Planet Startup

As part of Dr. Feinstein’s post-doctoral activities as a Visiting Fellow at Harvard, much of the program was developed. The idea was to create a barefoot entrepreneur program around the world where young adults would build their own local companies, reap the rewards, and then teach others to do the same using a free-market emergent capitalistic approach.  Entrepreneurs would learn to develop pitch decks to brief potential partners and investors similar to what is done on Shark Tank. Planet Startup also partnered with organizations offering investment grants that need not be paid back. They use the Harvard Case approach to develop business plans and related materials with the entrepreneurs.
