Baylor University student launches podcast to help aspiring student entrepreneurs

Here’s a good example of students being entrepreneurial.

During a summer internship with a start-up company, Baylor University Senior Dillon Fontaine said he experienced the pressures of juggling multiple responsibilities when taking over such a large role. Though he looked for resources to help him, Fontaine was not able to find any that were centered around real people’s stories. He came back to Baylor in the fall ready to meet a need that other entrepreneurs face daily.

Fontaine teamed-up with a recent Baylor graduate to launch a podcast series titled Venturing Out and with a motto of “Entrepreneurs serving entrepreneurs.” Click here to learn more about it.

For Knoxville area entrepreneurs, there are a number of podcasts available. They include “Startup Knox Podcast,” launched by Brandon Bruce, Co-Founder of the resource site; “Made for Knoxville” from the Knoxville Entrepreneur Center; and “Made Right Here,” the newest from Paul Sponcia, Principal and Chief Executive Officer of The IT Company LLC.
