Local entrepreneurs inspire students at MSU Entrepreneur Day

April 2, 2008View for printing

Sarah Greenshields always knew she wanted to start her own business. Thanks to Montana State University’s entrepreneurship program http://www.montana.edu/cob/centernewwest/ , she felt she had the knowledge and confidence to do it.

Greenshields, 26, graduated in December, but she’s already working to launch her company, called Genre & Mode, making stylish bags to carry the medical supplies that she and other diabetics must have on hand.

“You can look cute and you can maintain your health,” Greenshields said Tuesday.

She was one of six young business owners who spoke at MSU’s Entrepreneur Day http://matr.net/article-28343.html to about 60 high school students from Bozeman, Livingston, Billings and the Rocky Boy reservation.
