Drexel Soph. Named Magazine's Entrepreneur of the Year
by KYW's Ian Bush
A Drexel sophomore has big dreams after a magazine picked him as "college entrepreneur of the year."
The best ideas usually come in the shower, but it was in the checkout line with a some friends at the dining hall that Bradley Ericson had his:
"Every one of us would receive a receipt. And instantly, every one of us would throw that meaningless receipt away. We didn't want this stupid receipt for a $2 slice of pizza."
But for some, that slip of paper has valuable information. So the 19-year-old from North Jersey came up with a system that removes the receipt -- and the waste -- from the equation, instead collecting data on a web portal associated with the student's ID card.
