Welcome to Sketched on a Napkin (SON), an I M (www.IMpossiblemall.com) company dedicated to
transforming lives through education, experiences, and exposure.
SON’s mission is to inspire and develop creativity and innovation across disciplines through programs, courses, and workshops. The relationship between creativity, innovation and
entrepreneurship inspired SON to create a professional development program specifically for entrepreneurs which is our Entrepreneurship Development Program (EDP).
SON-EPD develops entrepreneurs with a “cooperative competition (aka coopetition) business mindset. Coopetition is unconventional collaboration and cooperation typically between competitors.
MYBY model is based on a framework of business development and value creation through “sharing and collaborating” along a competitive trajectory.
Participants gain an understanding of the social, intellectual and economic benefits of achieving and maintaining a thriving, diverse, business community and network.
It's on the way and you don't want to miss it!

Sketched on a Napkin’s Entrepreneurship Development Program (SON-EDP) teaches individuals how to detect opportunities, generate ideas to exploit those opportunities, transform those ideas into a
business model, and launch a business. SON-EDP’s objective is to improve individuals’ creative and innovative skills. All these skills are transferable and can be utilized in non-entrepreneurial
disciplines.
Emerging entrepreneurs must be able to rapidly transform ideas into viable marketable solutions. SON-EDP participants begin with learning about entrepreneurship, idea generation and analysis,
developing the idea, transforming the idea into a marketable item, launching a business to bring the item to market, and how to grow the business.
Our EDP utilizes content and material from reputable resources including successful entrepreneurs, prominent business schools, and other periodicals. Our EDP is comprised of instructor-led
classroom sessions, e-learning, experiential learning, projects, readings, assignments and exercises.
Team building is part of the experience. Participants take part in team exercises to learn the value of collaboration, cooperation, and leveraging resources (“sharing”).
