Which business schools have produced the most entrepreneurs?
A recently published LinkedIn study examined the backgrounds of members who identify themselves as startup founders and came up with the leading schools for entrepreneurs.
The results dramatically differ from the two most-cited yet deeply flawed rankings of leading entrepreneurial programs by Princeton Review and U.S. News & World Report. By sifting through its more than 120 million member profiles, LinkedIn has produced the ideal “put up or shut up” analysis. It’s the kind of data that calls out schools that have made entrepreneurship a marketing or promotional vehicle vs. those that have produced actual startup entrepreneurs.
LinkedIn membership data shows these five schools produced the most startup founders:
Stanford,
Harvard,
MIT Sloan,
Berkeley’s Haas School, and
Dartmouth College’s Tuck School.
The next five are Wharton, Columbia, Babson, Virginia Darden, and the Johnson School at Cornell University.
