I'm a 16-year-old who's been on self-improvement for 2 years and now, for a variety of reasons, I want to be an entrepreneur.
The point is that I'm unable to be an entrepreneur right now for 2 main reasons: Given that I'm 16 I need juridical permission from my parents in order to be able to create a business (that's how it works in Spain) and I don't have a bank account either(my parents won't let me have one until I'm 18). Thankfully, the Spanish education system is quite different from the others and specifically in Catalonia there's a mandatory project which lasts about 9 months and has to be done between 11th and 12th grade. The project consists on picking a free topic and doing a lot of research in order to fulfil an aim, the project is not only theoretical but practical too, so you're forced to do something practical (Interviews, surveys... or whatever is related to your topic). Given that I want to be an entrepreneur, I've chosen to “create” a business, I can't quite literally create one because of the reasons listed above, but this is the maximum I can for now. This way I can learn more about the topic during my school time, but there's an issue. Even though I could just do a prototype for my business service as a practical work, for some reason I'm forced to interview someone.
This “someone” has to be a successful entrepreneur, he doesn't have to be famous or anything like that, he just has to be somewhat successful in this realm. Even though I'm Spanish, the interview can be done in English, and it doesn't have to be in-person, it can be done on-line too. As for the time of the interview, it doesn't have to be 2 hours long, just half an hour or 1 hour at maximum would be good. Moreover, it doesn't have to be done NOW, it can be done in 3 or 4 months time.
If anyone had any suggestions, I would be very grateful to read them, since this a quite important part of the project. All suggestions are welcomed.
