Summary: Ed Roberts came to MIT as a teenager -- and never left. To say his time here has been productive would be an understatement. In addition to the four degrees he's earned and decades of teaching and research, this energetic innovator founded and chairs the MIT Entrepreneurship Center and co-founded the Management of Technology Program. His latest accomplishment is the introduction of the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Program. Fondly known as E&I, this phenomenally popular element of the MBA program leverages the entrepreneurial ecosystem at MIT and brings likeminded entrepreneurs together. Recently Ed spoke with correspondents Scott Rolph and Michelle Choate about his latest curricular innovation, his long journey down the entrepreneurship path, and what he firmly believes makes a great entrepreneur.
