    2020 Legatum Center for Development and Entrepreneurship at MIT NBK Capital Partners and the Role of Private Capital in Emerging Markets CASE STUDY DECEMBER 2020 REGIE MAURICIO DINA H. SHERIF SECTION I: NEW IDEAS FOR A CHALLENGING MARKET Yaser Moustafa joined National Bank of Kuwait Capital Partners (NBKCP) as Senior Managing Director at a turning point in April 2015. His primary goals were to diversify the alternative investments company’s LP base and grow multi-fund platform investment strategies. However, Yaser quickly realized that more time and effort was required to ensure that the portfolio companies created value that would bring back solid returns for the fund. The macroeconomic environment at the time was unforgiving. The 2011 revolutions in the area scared off many foreign investors, and in the year that Yaser assumed this role, the price of oil dropped by 70%. Portfolio companies needed to weather challenging circumstances but often lacked the institutional resilience. One such firm was Yatsan, a mattress and sleep product manufacturer in Turkey. The platform had only recently acquired a majority in the company in 2014. It had previously held a minority share in the company and realized that it could not affect the kind of changes needed for the business to grow. Yatsan was a family business and faced many endemic challenges including irregular financial bookkeeping and inconsistent compliance efforts. All 800 of the company's employees reported directly to the owners who managed by personal relationships. The salary scale was not uniform, the pay schedule unpredictable, the health and safety standards inadequate, and no union in operation.

Journal of Entrepreneurship Education Volume 21, Issue 2, 2018 UNDERSTANDING THE ECOSYSTEMS OF CHINESE AND AMERICAN ENTREPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION Chien Wen Yu, Bridgewater State University ABSTRACT Since the 1980s, entrepreneurship education in the United States has become increasingly popular. The system of entrepreneurship education in the United States is characterized by relatively scientific and systemic teaching and research. The concept of ecosystems, which comes from the natural sciences, is increasingly applied to regional development and focused on inter-organizational relationships. One way to assess the ecosystems of entrepreneurship education is to consider all components of the whole–the business model, teaching philosophy, curriculum, teaching content, teacher training, infrastructure, culture, network and practices of each country. A useful tool for understanding these interrelationships is the Triple Helix Model (university-government-industry). This approach is applied in here this research to compare and analyse the ecosystems of entrepreneurship education in the United States and China, the top two economic and entrepreneurial powers in the world.
