The Engler Lecture Series
The Engler Lecture series is founded on the premise that aspiring entrepreneurs can gain significant value from associating with successful entrepreneurs and learning from their experiences – the good, the bad, and the ugly.
These lectures offer Engler students the opportunity to hear the story of how a company was created, and also for one-on-one discussions with invited guests. Through these conversations students will gain deeper insight into the world of entrepreneurship, while developing professional relationships of lasting value.

A unique conversation between 2 men who built their businesses side by side on a country road, April 10, 2015
LUCK? I don't know anything about luck. I've never banked on it and I'm afraid of people who do. Luck to me is something else:
HARD WORK and realizing what is opportunity and what isn't.
