Profiles in Tech Entrepreneurship: Maria Rios
Abstract
Over the next few issues of IEEE Engineering Management Review, we will feature profiles of some of the many entrepreneurs who are movers and shakers in a variety of fields as part of a technology manager s notebook series. Entrepreneurship requires change agents, leaders who are innovative, proactive, and risk-takers.1 Entrepreneurship also often requires technology and engineering insights. In these articles, we will provide a look at the innovative thought processes and practices of these entrepreneurs—what got them where they are today.\xa0We will also tap into their experiences in order to share lessons learned with the broader community. Many of these entrepreneurs will be attending Technology and Engineering Management Society events over the next couple years. Take the opportunity to meet them as you can, especially if you are thinking about launching your own new venture. Our first featured entrepreneur is Maria Rios.
