  • 74% ranked their academic performance among the top 1/3 of their high school class but they tended to do better in high school than college
  • 71% came from middle-class backgrounds
  • 69 % were married when they launched their first business

What does a Successful Entrepreneur rank as the most important factors for success in business:

  • 82% think that it is the Management Team you put together
  • 78% feel that it’s learning from previous failures
