Bob Compton Visits New Tech High @ Arsenal Tech!
Bob Compton is a Harvard Business School graduate with an honorary Doctorate from the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. He has spent most of his career as a professional venture capital investor specializing in start-up technology companies, primarily medical tech and software. Compton's latest endeavors include global traveler, author, record producer, photographer and filmmaker. Two Million Minutes: A Global Examination is his first documentary film and was released in 2007. The film follows two high school seniors in India, China and the U.S. (US students were from Carmel, IN) to compare and contrast the high school experiences in each country. How kids spend their time during high school - approximately four years, or two million minutes - in each culture is radically different and has profound implications for America's economy in the decades ahead. Compton has since produced several follow-up films, taking a deeper look into global education as well as films on entrepreneurship - both in the U.S. and in China.
