Meredith Meyer Grelli, Vice Provost, Entrepreneurship and Associate Vice President of Carnegie Mellon University, joins us to discuss why higher education is shifting focus toward preparing students to become entrepreneurs who build organizations rather than just work at them. Host Emily DeJeu and Grelli discuss the changing career aspirations of students, the competitive landscape for startup funding, CMU's rich history of innovation, and the inaugural regional StartUP PGH event designed to drive western Pennsylvania's tech ecosystem.
