Nathan's Experiences In Action

Teaching (and Learning) to Use an Entrepreneurial Mindset is Hard...

…But it’s even harder to see unrealized potential in projects and entrepreneurs.

People turn to me when their group desperately needs to develop an iterative, entrepreneurial approach. 

Because entrepreneurship education should not only inform but empower early-stage entrepreneurs with the competence to dive into the unknown with curiosity to make the world better.

About Nathan Minns

Nathan has spent most of his career in the startup ecosystem as an employee and a 3x founder. His online courses on web design have earned over 60,000 enrollments from 179 countries. He has spearheaded startup initiatives for major corporations and became the youngest board member at a youth leadership development nonprofit in 2017. As a mentor and certified facilitator for Techstars—the world’s largest pre-seed investor, and a mentor for the Founder Institute—the world’s largest pre-seed accelerator, Nathan has honed his skills in nurturing innovation and fostering entrepreneurial spirit.

Nathan uses his experience in entrepreneurship combined with his professional acting & improvising experience to create engaging experiences that develop participants’ entrepreneurial thinking ability.

But...Why Improv?

Improv comedy is one of the tools in Nathan’s toolbox, as he has performed as a professional actor & improviser.

Improv comedy, the skill of performative unscripted conversation, is all about creating something from nothing, pivoting and performing under pressure, and (usually) relying heavily on a team. 

Nathan uses the similarities between improv and entrepreneurship to develop iterative thinking. 

"Within 5 minutes, Nathan had the entire audience engaging with each other, laughing, and working together"

- Eleanor Kamke, MBA

The Answer: Improv Principles

Improv is a team sport. We emphasize teamwork & reciprocal support.
