Olderpreneurs
This site is dedicated to help entrepreneurs around the world. It doesn’t matter if you are young or old entrepreneur, its never too late. Talking about old entrepreneurs who are older than 50 years old, I came across a new terminology to describe them : Olderpreneurs ! I first heard the term while I was driving back from the computer labs at Bangor University at midnight few days ago. I was working on an essay “Are German banks riskiers than European competitors ?” with my friends, gladly We finished it today and submitted it. That day I was listening to BBC radio , and I heard a couple of English people talking about olderpreneurs and olderpreneurship, that gave me a wake-up call trigger. They were talking about success stories for olderpreneurs, and funding programs that they can use. I guess the term “olderpreneurs” is only used in UK, thats what google said. The British papers also highlighted that, according to the Guardian. I also found an interesting wiki website called Wikipreneurship that specilizes in Entrepreneurship which also highlighted olderpreneurship. The amazing fact that I discovered according to the Guardian : is that success rate at establishing start ups at older age seems to be better than youngsters. They justified that by experience- older people have more experience and better skills. I totally agree with that, experience is an important factor, but what matter most is MOTIVATION. I have seen successful people from all ages, and they are all motivated leaders. The trend according to a UK research shows that the number of olderpreneurs are increasing in UK, interesting and I hopefully see it around the world.
