StreetSmart Entrepreneuring
About the Author
|
I'm Frank Zenie. I have spent twenty-five years as an entrepreneur and
Chief Executive, building innovative, market leading and profitable
companies. I served as President/CEO of Waters Associates (now Waters
Corporation) 1969 through 1980 and co-founded Zymark Corporation in
1981, serving as its President/CEO through 1996.
I am currently an entrepreneurial coach, investor and director for a number of
early-stage, technology-based companies - many healthcare related. I also
serve as Chairmans of VelQuest Corporation and Process Packaging &
Control Corporation. In addition, I am a trustee of The Zenie Foundation, a
private foundation dedicated to education support for deserving students
who are often unable to access traditional financial support.
My new book, StreetSmart Entrepreneuring, summarizes my entrepreneurial
experiences and insights. I intend to spend the next year or so sharing this
material through university business schools, entrepreneurial development
organizations and private company consulting. My goal is not to teach small
business mechanics, but to develop awareness to entrepreneurial:
I began my formal teaching as an MIT Sloan Senior Lecturer leading
“Starting and Running a Successful Technology-based Company” and I'm
currently lecturing at several universities in addition to my corporate coaching
and director roles.
I have a BS in Electrical Engineering from MIT and an MBA from the
University of Rhode Island. I also have been extensively published in the
trade magazines.
