I know that Stanford and Babson have courses on entrepreneurship for
underrepresented groups. I will be teaching minority
entrepreneurship as part of a course for Masters students this
spring. I just published a book on minority entrepreneurship with
Alicia Robb at MIT Press entitled, "Race and Entrepreneurial Success"
that I'm planning on using for this course. We provide a
comprehensive analysis of recent trends in minority entrepreneurship
using new data and the most respected government data sources. We
also provide an extensive analysis of causes of racial differences,
literature review, data discussion, and policy discussion. Several
people have asked me about the book at conferences for other
courses. Please take a quick look at it:
