A Business Plan to help NASA's Mars Mission is used as a vehicle for developing entrepreneurial skills and experience among engineering students. A team of students at all levels is guided through the process of conceptualizing and developing a proposal and a Business Plan, and articulating these to NASA and other audiences. A technology developed through a NASA-sponsored Student Flight experiment is used as the nucleus of a Space-based construction industry over the next 20 years. The team structure, and its evolution over the first year of the project, are presented. The GT team's endeavor has served to focus attention on the central role of Space-based infrastructure to enable development of a Space-based economy.
