 \n*Dr Jo Mills*\, Programme Director for the Postgraduate Diploma in Entre
 preneurship says _“Investing in yourself is investing in your business b
 ut few entrepreneurs are encouraged to see it like that. In fact\, they te
 nd to feel guilty when they are spending money on their own development\, 
 rather than putting it into their business. With start-up failures potenti
 ally even higher than previously thought\, it’s really time to throw out
  the old assumptions that entrepreneurs can ‘wing it’ and learn as the
 y go\, and make investment in individual skills a core part of being an en
 trepreneur. Even for established entrepreneurs\, it’s all about being a 
 better entrepreneur. The more skills you have the less likely your busines
 s is to fail and that’s what economies around the world need – not jus
 t innovators and entrepreneurs but really skilled innovators and entrepren
 eurs who know\, not just how to create\, but how to run a business for the
  optimum chance of success.”_\n\nOur guest speaker Lord Karan Bilimoria 
 has said _“There’s no doubt that many aspects of successful entreprene
 urship can be taught – they are\, after all\, simply the fundamentals of
  good business management. And at Cambridge we are also fortunate to be ab
 le to offer a unique environment full of entrepreneurs\, successful ventur
 es and brilliance in research and learning.”_\n\nThe Postgraduate Diplom

 s venture. The development of foundation skills\, knowledge and networks c
