The document discusses the vision and goals of the Global Venture Lab (GVL) network. The GVL aims to create a new university-based business creation platform by connecting faculty globally and piloting "live case" entrepreneurship programs. It outlines problems with current business education models and proposes solutions like establishing a global network of entrepreneurial faculty and leveraging students, alumni, and outside partners to boost real-world learning and new venture creation. The goal is for entrepreneurs, students, and faculty around the world to collaborate through GVL to solve big problems and launch new growth companies by 2012.
