MTSU alum Tyler Burnett (’17) went from playing for the Blue Raiders and being drafted by the Houston Astros to founding Goat Turf, a $25 million artificial turf company. His success was shaped by MTSU’s Entrepreneurship program in the MTSU Jennings A. Jones College of Business, which helps students turn ideas into thriving businesses. Thanks to the Pam Wright (’73) Endowed Chair of Entrepreneurship, led by Professor Joshua Aaron, and major supporters like Chuck McDowell (’83), the Business Innovation and Entrepreneurship program is transforming student entrepreneurs. Graduates like Savannah Tucker (’23), founder of Savvy Sweet Pecans, and Raymond Clifton (’24), who built a scalable locksmithing business, are prime examples of MTSU's role in fueling innovation. Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) is proving that entrepreneurship can be taught—and its graduates are thriving! Read the full story featured in MTSU magazine: https://lnkd.in/dwUJwuwS
