The JPMorgan Chase Institute research on necessity entrepreneurs during recessions perfectly captures what we're seeing with the RTO mandates. When 80% of college-educated mothers with young children were participating in 2023 and that drops to 77% by 2025, you're looking at a massive pool of talnt that will likely turn to entrepreneurship. Libraries stepping up to support this transition is exactly what inclusive economic development looks like.
I've always been a fan of libraries, and for me a job elimination has elevated the incredible value of libraries in my eyes. Kenton County has an amazing career group for people in professional transition, and topics include resources and support for entrepreneurs. I am currently a "necessity entrepreneur" who can easily see this becoming a long-term endeavor. Hats off to entrepreneurs, hubs and ecosystems, and innovative libraries!
Libraries are a public good that is a part of the foundation that created modern society. I am not surprised that it supports entrepreneurship and innovation
When I was laid off from my work at an investment bank in Bahrain in 1985, I went to my local library and looked for jobs and learned programming in Basic. It wasn't useful as such, but I have benefited from learning to use the next phase of technological progress. Learning to use AI now!
