Those with some entrepreneurial or business background or qualifications and those with some prior entrepreneurial or business work experience in any of the fields of Business who aspire to become Serial Entrepreneurs running the Business they Founded or Co-Founded may have some headstart on the SeEP  Program.

However, those without entrepreneurial or business backgrounds or qualifications and others without prior entrepreneurial or business work experience can still catch up on their entrepreneurial SEEK^TM without difficulty on the SeEP  Program and become successful Serial Entrepreneurs. The expectation is that what they lack on the entrepreneurial business background qualification or work experience side can be picked up easily on their SeEP  Entrepreneurship Journey and beyond.

The Business world is littered with successful Serial Entrepreneurs running Businesses that they Founded employing knowledgeable and experienced Business expertise without having a Business background. Famous examples of Serial Entrepreneurs who started their entrepreneurial journey without a background in entrepreneurship or business include Elon Musk, who began his entrepreneurship career with Zip2, a searchable business directory he founded in 1995, then sold it four times years later for $307 million.
