Question Is business too overlooked by FIRST?

In my time with FRC, I have noticed that there is often little focus on business as a part of STEM. It makes me sad to see this, as a huge part of mathematics is business and there is no way a team can run successfully without a strong business side.
Should FIRST be working on creating more of an awareness of business related activities rather than just focusing on the technical and engineering side of things? Engineering is fantastic, don't get me wrong, but there are so many more aspects of FIRST to build upon.
I personally feel a good place to start would be setting up university scholarships for students going into business, rather than expanding more engineering, programming, or other tech related ones.
Thoughts?
ALSO, I don't mean in any way to stop promoting tech related things in FIRST. They are awesome, too.
