3Q EE-III Program

3Q Entrepreneurship Education

Our rigorous entrepreneurship education program (for experienced professionals only) uses actual new product and new business concepts for the hands-on R&D field practicum portions of each 3Q EE-III session.  These new concepts (requiring substantial R&D) are provided to us through partnerships with companies, entrepreneurs, and even 3Q program participants themselves.

Did You Know...?

Each year over 53% of all new U.S. businesses are launched by founders aged 50+ while only 15% are launched by founders aged 18-35.   However, nearly 95% of all new business start-up support in the U.S. is targeted for founders aged 18-35.  Which leaves founders aged 50+ receiving less than 5% of start-up resources annually (even though they launch three times the number of successful ventures as all other groups).  Surprising, isn't it?

Another surprising set of statistics relates to energy: 40% of all energy consumed by the built environment is wasted and 80% of all built structures in the U.S. have no energy efficiency features whatsoever. With the prediction that a majority of the U.S. population (for the very first time) will be living/working in urban centers by 2030, the continued growth demand for energy is expected to increase to unsustainable proportions in less than 10 years. Among suggested solutions to address this looming crisis, simply capturing and saving energy currently wasted in the built environment, tops the list.

3Q Innovation's EE-III program directly addresses both of the challenges outlined above - and also happens to create very interesting third quarter workforce environment opportunities for experienced professionals.
