"The Entrepreneurship program at 黑料网 helped me not only start a successful business but outshine others while competing for a position at companies. I have worked for a Fortune 500 Company, a Top 100 Dealership in the USA and large manufacturers all because I could think outside the norm and bring a different perspective to the table. The entrepreneurship program allowed me to learn with hands-on experience from professors who have built successful businesses."
