Report on research by Vivek Wadhwa, "a former tech entrepreneur, ...Wertheim Fellow at the Harvard Law School and an executive-in-residence at Duke University." Turns out that the idea that tech entrepreneurs are predominantly Mark Zuckerberg's age are exagerrated/ wrong.

Additional insights also re. education and training.
