Entrepreneurship is a key driver of the economy, and a large number of jobs are created by small businesses started by entrepreneurially minded individuals. Understanding this, universities around the country —including The University of Akron — are focused on incorporating entrepreneurship into the curriculum.

A trailblazer in this area is Dr. Barry Rosenbaum, a senior fellow at the The University of Akron Research Foundation, who was recognized June 13 for Outstanding Contributions to Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Higher Education at the 6th annual Deshpande Symposium in Lowell, Mass. This award recognizes an individual who demonstrates extraordinary achievements, service and/or contributions to advancing the field of entrepreneurship in higher education.
