ANN ARBOR ? Management consultant CompanyCrafters has published an Entrepreneur’s Dictionary to translate business terminology for everyone in the start-up game that don’t have fancy MBAs.

The Entrepreneur?s Dictionary: a Guide t Start-up Business Term for non-MBAs, is sort of the idiots? guide to Entrepreneurship.

“We think of The Entrepreneur?s Dictionary as a secret decoder ring for ‘business speak,'” said CompanyCrafters founding partner Jim Price. “The vast majority of new businesses are launched by people who have deep expertise in their particular field ? for example, wireless networking, or construction materials, or healthcare software.

?But ninety-nine percent of those entrepreneurs do not come equipped with an MBA degree or years of previous startup experience,? he said. ?So, whether we’re talking about new ventures launched from under the corporate umbrella, university spin-outs or stand-alone startups, we’ve found that it’s helpful to clear away some of the unnecessary mystery associated with business concepts and terminology.”

Founded by veteran technology entrepreneurs, CompanyCrafters works with Fortune 2000 companies and research institutions to craft and launch new businesses based on the client?s innovations that often reach beyond the parent organization?s mainstream activities into new technologies, markets or business models.

CompanyCrafters helps these businesses ?get entrepreneurial? by crafting businesses around the most promising, highest return new business

opportunities.
