Wicked Problems and Grand Challenges

This session highlights the idea that opportunities are everywhere and discusses how we can learn to recognize them and begin to think like an entrepreneur.

Remember:

  • Most societal and environmental problems are very difficult to solve
  • Interconnectivity is just one, but an important one, of the characteristics of wicked problems that make them difficult to solve.
  • No single venture can completely solve a wicked problem or grand challenge and that impacting just a few people or even a single community can make a really big difference.
