This week on Forbes Avenue, we had a chat with Dave Mawhinney, executive director of the Swartz Center for Entrepreneurship at Carnegie Mellon’s Tepper School of Business.
While the days of Pittsburgh’s Industrial Revolution are in the past, a new revolution is happening in the city: the emergence of tech startups. We discussed all things entrepreneurship with Dave, including his own experiences starting tech companies in Pittsburgh and how he’s trying to help students and alumni at CMU become entrepreneurs themselves.
