Entrepreneurship In Action

Food Combi is the project initiated by Dr. John Alver Dobson of using a food truck to drive community engagement.  It is used by Re-entry Entrepreneurship students and Clark University students to build up their skills with starting and running a small business.  The students are formerly incarcerated individuals who are transitioning back into society.  The Food Combi allows them to rebuild themselves, reconnect with their community, and become productive members of society. 

 

Please contact us if you would like more information or stop by at one of our events.

Meet the Team

Dr. John Dobson

John’s mantra is to ‘help students make a living around their passion’.  

 

He is the founder of the DYME institute, which uses problem-based learning approaches to help students develop their entrepreneurial skills.  He is currently associate professor at Clark University. 

 

Through his DYME institute, he has developed the Food Combi, which provides formally incarcerated individuals an opportunity to earn college credit through the Re-entry Entrepreneurship course.  The course is provided in both Spanish and English.  Students will learn how to successfully launch their own businesses, helping build a better future for themselves and their families and become productive members of society.
