Description
This is an exhaustive 1yr MBA program geared towards entrepreneurship. Acton was founded by ex-UT McCombs professor, all of whom have built their own companies. The program is just a few years old and extremely demanding with a focus on real-world activities like selling. While there is some focus on bootstrapping, there isn't a distinction made between bootstrapping and investor-driven entrepreneurship in the program. Bootstrappers in early Ideation might consider the Acton MBA program. Acton grads are also possible candidates for bootstrap companies. One of the nice features of the program is that graduates are essentially on a kind of full-scholarship. They don't have to immediately pay back the money granted to them, though it's expected that they will eventually contribute to a scholarhip for another student. This makes them better-suited to joining a bootstrap company.
