Young entrepreneurs need to stay true to their passion, persevere and learn from their mistakes, according to a panel of local business founders who faced questions this morning from LSU business students at an event on campus held as part of Baton Rouge Entrepreneurship Week.

“I know it’s cheesy, but my high school football coach always used to say, ‘Find a way.’ That’s what being an entrepreneur is about,” said William McGehee, co-founder of Tin Roof Brewery.

Each of the panelists, including Monique Breaux with POSH Exclusive Interiors, Caryn Roland with Heirloom Cuisine and Kolby Tullier of Body Mechanics Training, spoke about the importance of taking away lessons from situations that went poorly. Daily Report has the full story.
