The article is about professors and how they spot the next business all-stars in their classroom. Some key things from the article:

-Entrepreneurs need to be persistent
-Entrepreneurs need to be good listeners (for advice and for good ideas)
-Entrepreneurs need to be able to execute or partner with someone who can help them execute

Also, Reibstein says "People often think of the million customers they might get, but not the first one. The first customer is really critical and the first five customers are very important."
