Every entrepreneur has an origin story. The best ones usually include a failure or two.Join the Carlsen Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Right to Start, and Twist of Fate Comics for a Global Entrepreneurship Week lunch with Douglas Younger III, creator of Twist of Fate Comics: Tales of Great American Entrepreneurs.
Twist of Fate is a sci-fi comic universe where everyday people risk everything to start a business in pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness, and learn hard lessons along the way. Each issue pairs a new entrepreneurial hero with a conversation between Doug and a professor, so the story doubles as a lesson in resilience, financial literacy, and business thinking.
Over lunch, Doug will share:
- Why he chose comics to teach entrepreneurship
- What fictional failures can teach real founders
- How storytelling can open the door for people who have never pictured themselves as business owners
We’ll close with Q&A and a conversation about why the freedom to start a business should belong to everyone.
Early release: Doug is bringing 50 copies of the debut issue, days before it goes public. The first 50 guests to check in take one home.
