Redefining Success: Changes In the Way We Measure Entrepreneurial Graduates – Marcus Simmons (Falmouth University)

Reacting to the news that there are to be changes in the way we measure graduate outcomes in the entrepreneurial space, we dusted off the podcast kit and reached out to Marcus Simmons who runs MSc Entrepreneurship & Innovation Management at Falmouth University, to record an emergency bonus pod. Marcus is someone who lives at the cutting edge of enterprise education and entrepreneurial development; an experienced enterprise lecturer, a multi-award-winning entrepreneur, and a master of creating outstanding, innovative business learning experiences that truly resonate with students. In this episode, we break down some major shifts in how startups and freelancers are being reported — changes that could have a serious ripple effect on universities and how they track and support entrepreneurial success. We also get into the knowledge gap exposed by the Graduate Outcomes Survey and why it's actually an exciting opportunity for institutions to rethink how they support their next-gen entrepreneurial cohorts. This one's packed with real-world insight and forward-thinking ideas that could shape the future of enterprise support in higher education — and ultimately lead to more meaningful success for freelancers, founders, and students alike.
