Speaking/Lecture Subject Ideas?

The university I (briefly) attended asked me to do a speaking thing for a bunch of their b-school kids. Not 100% what engaging content would be for them? I'm an entrepreneur and it's tempting just to go in and talk about how I built my initial businesses and then moved into the PE side of things but I'm not sure that's appealing to anyone other than other entrepreneurs?

I could talk about small cap private equity, but again, it's a bunch of third year b-school kids so that might be too focused?

Any ideas? Anything specifically you'd want to know if you were a kid in b-school?
