Entrepreneur & Social Entrepreneur Meetup #16 - Issues Breakout

The next Entrepreneur & Social Entrepreneur Meetup will be this coming Thursday, April 24th at 8pm. We'll be doing an "Issues Forum" this time. The presentations will be on specific issues instead of commercial/social ventures, followed by discussion. The issues will be poverty, energy, and entrepreneurship (descriptions below) plus one TED video. We'll be starting the presentations right at 8:30pm.

You can RSVP at http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=17811045319.

=======ADDITIONAL INFO======

Instead of the regular commercial/social venture presentation format we'll be having presentations on issues followed by group discussions. We'll be starting the presentations at 8:30pm.

On tap are issue presentations on:

1. Ending Poverty: How Our Global Generation Can End Poverty in Our Lifetime

2. Sustainable Energy: A Look At Alternative Energy Technologies And What Will Be Used to Power Our World in 30 years

3. Entrepreneurship: Key Lessons Learned Building a Company to 90 Employees

We'll also be watching 1 TED Video and discussing it.

Each topic will be presented for 10 minutes, followed by up to 15 minutes of discussion.

We have room for one additional topic. Please feel free to propose a topic that you can present on the Facebook Wall or propose a topic you'd like to see presented.

All area entrepreneurs and social entrepreneurs, and anyone working to or wanting to make a difference, help others, or change the world are welcome! We will have plenty of wine, beer, sushi, snacks, and food for all.
