What a cool professor!

Why is it that "entrepreneurship" events are filled with the same guys in the same suits with the same talks and the same drinks, refreshments, hell even the same ties year on year on year?
The invited speakers look around and wince at the audience. Here are a whole load of people coming trying to find the spark of an entrepreneur. It's not something you can learn, I don't think.

To be fair, it was about junior entreprise (which could be said to require a smaller spark).
Two quotes I made: Beat yesterday! and Innovation: 1% invention and 99% perspiration.

The Professor from Japan came to the conference in casual clothes. Inquiring about the dress code, he was strongly encouraged to reappear in business attire. Somewhat surprised about having to wear such a blatant symbol of the establishment (the topic was meant to be entrepreneurship), he strolled into town to purchase shoes, shirt, trousers, jacket, tie and tie clip. He later told me: 'Buying a suit can tell you a lot about the local culture, I do it often.' The Professor likes to travel light. He will dispose of the suit before continuing his journey, as he always does.
