      Entrepreneurial Week Takes the Bay Area by Storm

      Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour Paves the Way

       

      West Valley Community College Theater

                                                   November 17, 2009, 11:00am3:00pm

       

      City College of San Francisco

      Diego Rivera Theatre: CCSF Main Campus

      November 18, 2009, 1:00-5:00 PM

                                             

                                                                                   

       

      San Francisco/San Jose Nov. 2009 – The power of the entrepreneurial spirit will be taking Northern California by storm during Global Entrepreneurial Week (GEW), November 16th to the 22nd . This is when The Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour will be making two stops within the Greater Bay Area, one at West Valley Community College on Tuesday, November 17th and the other at San Francisco City College on Wednesday, November 18th.

       

      The Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour is not your typical entrepreneurship event with a keynote-speaker and a business-pitch. This FREE event is full of music, movement, food, text message voting, high-fives, and opportunities to receive over $1200.00 in prizes and of course, tips and tools to turn an idea into reality. You will be inspired by the stories of successful, young entrepreneurs and agents of change under 30. Brainstorm your new business ideas and gain insight into your goals. You can get your burning questions answered during the interactive panel and receive feedback and support with other like-minded attendees during networking breaks.

       

      This high-energy event features the top young successful local entrepreneurs. If you're interested in starting a business or setting yourself apart in your career now, this event is for you! Take your career to the next level faster and learn more about entrepreneurship and turn your idea into a reality.  Existing entrepreneurs who want to recharge their batteries are also welcome.  More information on the Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour is at the website: (www.extremetour.org)

       

      The tour is presented by the California Community Colleges Economic Workforce Development Program (EWD). With state unemployment at a record high and job prospects grim, more and more college students are thinking about starting their own business. “The state’s Community Colleges and Centers are looking for new ways to generate innovative businesses that create jobs and face down the recession,” says Mike Roessler, EWD's program director. “Bringing the Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour to our college campuses is an out-of-the-box strategy that taps a largely overlooked resource:  the creativity and energy of our young people.”  The Tour helps students take the next step by offering inspiration and practical advice about how to start a business. 

       

      Created in 2006 by Sheena Lindahl and Michael Simmons, the tour features many of California’s top young entrepreneurs who've made, earned or sold companies for millions of dollars and/or made a huge impact before the age of 30. One speaker, Cameron Johnson (24) from Los Angeles, started a dozen profitable businesses and became a self-made millionaire while he was still a teenager.  Another speaker, Rahim Fazal (27) from San Francisco, sold his first business for $1.5 million as he was graduating from high school.  Fazal is the co-founder and CEO of the venture-backed company, Involver.

       

      “More than half the companies on the 2009 Fortune 500 list were launched during a recession or bear market,” says Simmons.  “Technology and globalization have made it very inexpensive to start a business.  Now is the best time that there has ever been to become your own boss.” 

       

      According to a 2007 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation survey by Harris Interactive, four out of 10 young people would like to start their own businesses someday.  “However, when we talked with students, we realized that many of them needed inspiration and support to achieve this dream,” says Lindahl. “That’s why we started the tour.”  

       

      The goal of the Extreme Entrepreneurship tour is to have college students around the nation graduate with an entrepreneurial mindset.  In 2009, interest in starting a business rose 16% among 4,200 California students who attended tour events. Small businesses with fewer than 20 employees are responsible for 35% of all jobs in the nation's largest state.

       

      For the first time, students who attend the tour events will be asked to take a pledge to create their own jobs by the end of 2010.  Using social media, tour attendees, speakers and staff will be able to ask questions, post updates on their businesses, and post comments about the tour on Twitter in real time and have them shared on http://www.extremetour.org/ca.  The goal is to get 10,000 new pledges by the end of the year.

       

      California is one of six states that led the nation in entrepreneurial activity in 2008, according to the Kauffman Index of Entrepreneurial Activity.  In an effort to capitalize on that trend, Economic and Workforce Development, Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs), Centers for International Trade and Development (CITDs), and community colleges are bringing California’s top young entrepreneurs to 18 college campuses for the first time.  The state's future business owners will learn the how-to’s of business startup, where to get help, to consider community college, as well as the importance of completing their education. 

       

      Both emerging entrepreneurs and students from all disciplines are invited to attend tour events in their area to learn how they can apply the entrepreneurial mindset to their lives regardless of their choice of careers.  Since the tour was created in 2006, it has presented 100 events in 30 states, reaching 100,000 students across the country.

       

      The three Extreme Tour directors had observed a gap in the conferences and events they were attending,
“We saw that there were lots of great entrepreneurship events going on around the country, but not a lot featuring the top young entrepreneurs,” Simmons said. “When I went to NYU, you had Michael Dell speak, and it was a good story, but not something that makes (a college student) think, ‘I could walk away and do this.” That’s one of the unique things about Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour – the keynote speakers are in their twenties or thirties, an age bracket that has more resonance with college students, “Most people haven’t seen someone who has created a multi-million dollar business in their twenties,” Simmons said. “We have them share (their story) authentically and ask them what their real challenges were.”

       

      For many of the students attending this Free Tour, the content is completely new territory. As part of an introduction to the idea of entrepreneurship as a career path, Simmons sees the role of Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour as laying a groundwork of confidence.
“The core of starting a business is having that belief in yourself that you can accomplish something, and conquer your fears, and apply that to the rest of your life,” Simmons said. So far, the tour has made over 100 stops, in over 30 states. The return on investment is nothing short of impressive – 93% of people who attend the event have been inspired to take action.
This idea serves to strengthen the community of aspiring entrepreneurs that Simmons said he sees emerging out of things like Extreme Entrepreneurship Tour and Global Entrepreneurship Week.
“Entrepreneurship education has never been as connected to itself, and to a movement, as it has been with GEW and (this kind of event),” Simmons said.
There are two tour stops planned during Global Entrepreneurship Week in the Greater Bay Area,– one at West Valley College Theater, 14000 Fruitvale Ave., Saratoga, CA, 95070 on Nov. 17; and one at City College of San Francisco on Nov. 18, Diego Rivera Theatre, 50 Phelan Ave, San Francisco, CA, 94112.

  • amazon.comn - Online shopping

    • From: amzone
    • Description:
      amazon.comn - Online shopping for BOOKS, amazon.comn music, DVDs, CDs, videos, electronics, software. amazon.comn Not only that Amazon.com has a huge selection of products it is also a very trustworthy place to shop online. You can look for a particular item or search by category without any real trouble. We offer such an enormous array of various products; If you need it, amazon.comn we've got it, amazon.comn and more! Mostly i like to purchase computer/electronic books and items (for myself, amazon.comn my spouse and our youngster)toys and some sets of digital video discs I even found "Death on a Sunday Morning, amazon.comn" an award-winning HBO documentary about a black teenager forced to confess to a murder he didn't commit in Jacksonville, amazon.comn FL. The documentary stars Pat McGuiness, amazon.comn a public defender that I know personally through my sister. Usually an item that is familiar to most purchasers will have a shorter description, amazon.comn and vice versa. This is included towards the value that you can discover items quickly that otherwise you ride around or call over trying to locate. Their prices are the most reasonable, amazon.comn and usually the lowest you'll find anywhere on the internet. (that I would trust) and at other stores. You can certainly find some well-priced, amazon.comn good value items on ebay, amazon.comn but I have also seen used items priced more than what you would pay for the same item brand new. create your account during first purchase, amazon.comn you may create your own account It stores the details on your credit or debit card, amazon.comn so your future orders go quicker. Not only can you put several mailing addresses on your account at Amazon.com, amazon.comn it also usually doesn't matter if you have an item shipped to an address that is is no way related to the address on your card or other method of payment. Setting up an account carries risk, amazon.comn but our account has never been compromised. Unless you include the unnecessary items my wife bought! It makes product suggestions based on past purchases and buying habits. "Plog" - now provides you to send messages to your own account (not your electronic mailing address) Accounting for what you've purchased in the past, amazon.comn the site recommends new products that you might want to purchase in the future, amazon.comn many of which you may have been unaware of. Many of them are interesting to read, amazon.comn and have user comments about how useful they are. While reviews can be of considerable help in product selection, amazon.comn they don't actually pay out in cash. Many times, amazon.comn I cross-reference them to e-pinions because they're not selling the product, amazon.comn therefore they aren't biased. there are many negative reviews on Amazon com and the concerns listed steered me away from a purchase. You can get FREE shipping on some items at Amazon.com. Usually 3-5 business days, amazon.comn though can be as high as 5-9 days depending on the item.. I never really became aware of it taking 5 business days, amazon.comn normally 3 or so. Two-day and overnight are a bit on the exorbitant side For example : you select free options like 5-9 business days for 99 or additional amount $7, amazon.comn35 for 3-5 business days when you purchase empty DVD for $26.$45 for shipping within 2 business days, amazon.comn or simply $23.45 airmail, amazon.comn overnight (If you place your order on Saturday or Sunday, amazon.comn don't expect it until next Tuesday.). Make sure you select items that are actually eligible for the free shipping discount. Usually I limit myself to purchasing items directly from them since involving another party means there could be an error made. Amazon.com takes great care in packaging goods for shipment. The use of bubble wrap as well as peanuts is well even by them. (Even though it's not actually edible, amazon.comn I'm pretty that my son ate it. Sadly he still won't touch his vegetables.). I like the system that they are using, amazon.comn however I have never needed to use it in the past. It's best to let them have your number and wait for them to call you instead of trying to call them. Everything is well organized into categories so that you can find what you need to quickly. In addition, amazon.comn you can let the time remain at "immediately" or set it for the next few minutes. In addition, amazon.comn you get the option to send an email message if you like, amazon.comn which you enter directly on their website. The call back is an ingenious idea, amazon.comn as long as they keep their promise. It doesn't bother me when they say it takes a full day, amazon.comn just so they don't exceed the deadline they set themselves. I find this terribly aggravating. They'll do what they say because they are reliable. Furthermore, amazon.comn their website includes lots of FAQs and useful tracking details. While I would certainly be willing to pay a few more bucks at Amazon com than shop at an online store that I don't know anything about, amazon.comn I'm also always looking for the best deals and comparing prices at other places. Because of all these qualities, amazon.comn we can recommend shopping at Amazon.com.

  • amazon.ocm - Online shopping f

    • From: amzone
    • Description:
      amazon.ocm You don't have to worry if you shop at Amazon.com,amazon.ocm and chances are you can find anything you're looking for. It is very user friendly,amazon.ocm letting you decide if you choose to search by item or by category. You can get almost anything on Amazon.com. Mostly i like to purchase computer/electronic books and items (for my wonderful family and myself)toys and some sets of digital video discs I was lucky enough to catch Death on a Sunday Morning. Its an HBO Academy Award winning documentary about a black teenager from Jacksonville,amazon.ocm FL who was forced into admitting he killed someone,amazon.ocm even though he didn't. Pat McGuiness,amazon.ocm someone I know from my sister,amazon.ocm stars in it. While most products wouldn't have such an involved and long description,amazon.ocm this particular item is one that won't typically be found just anywhere,amazon.ocm such as your local DVD retailer. This is included towards the value that you can discover items quickly that otherwise you ride around or call over trying to locate. This just may be the least expensive that you would have found online. (that I would trust) at brick and morter stores as well. Even though e-bay is another wonderful online site to find deals,amazon.ocm I often find items on Amazon.com that are brand new in package,amazon.ocm and much cheaper than those on e-bay. create your account during first purchase,amazon.ocm you may create your own account The system will keep your credit/debit information on file,amazon.ocm which will help streamline your next purchase. Amazon.com is very reasonable about allowing you to ship a purchase where you want to,amazon.ocm whereas some sites want you to only ship to your billing address. Setting up an account carries risk,amazon.ocm but our account has never been compromised. That is,amazon.ocm if you don't include items my spouse purchased that weren't exactly necessities! You get a detailed order history,amazon.ocm and even suggestions for items you may want to purchase in the future. A new "Plog" feature now sends messages directly to your account. (not your electronic mailing address) about new items based on your buying habits. Most of them at very least contain some useful and interesting reading,amazon.ocm as well as additional comments about their performance and usefulness from individuals all around,amazon.ocm if nothing else. While reviews can be of considerable help in product selection,amazon.ocm they don't actually pay out in cash. Many times,amazon.ocm I cross-reference them to e-pinions because they're not selling the product,amazon.ocm therefore they aren't biased. there are many negative reviews on Amazon com and the concerns listed steered me away from a purchase. You can get FREE shipping on some items at Amazon.com. Usually 3-5 business days,amazon.ocm though can be as high as 5-9 days depending on the item.. I never really became aware of it taking 5 business days,amazon.ocm normally 3 or so. The cost of shipping two-day or overnight is expensive,amazon.ocm and not worth it since it arrives pretty quickly for no extra charge. For instance: if you bought some blank DVD's for $26,amazon.ocm99,amazon.ocm you can pick the free shipping option which is 5-9 business days,amazon.ocm or pay an extra $7,amazon.ocm35 to speed up the process with 3-5 days.$45 for shipping within 2 business days,amazon.ocm or simply $23.45 airmail,amazon.ocm overnight (purchase orders placed over the weekend are received on Tuesday). Make sure you select items that are actually eligible for the free shipping discount. Not buying stuff from 3rd party vendors who sell through Amazon.com makes your transaction less likely to be problematic,amazon.ocm although Amazon has a guarantee to cover all your purchases made on their site. Amazon com takes great care when packaging your item; its safety is assured. Always use proper packing materials,amazon.ocm which may include packing peanuts or bubble wrap (not the edible kind,amazon.ocm although my son ate one,amazon.ocm even though he won't touch his vegetables... figures). Customer Service I haven't had occasion to test it out,amazon.ocm however they've got a plan in place that is a good one. Rather than phoning them,amazon.ocm you provide your phone number so they can contact you. No more tangle of questions and clicking around for issues that have nothing to do with the categories. You will be allowed to leave the time as either "currently" or in 5,amazon.ocm 10 or 15 minutes. You can send an email to them using a contact form on their site. The call back is an ingenious idea,amazon.ocm as long as they keep their promise. They should stick to the shipping deadlines that they originally promised. I find this terribly aggravating. Since they've always done such a good job on everything else they handle,amazon.ocm I fully expect that they will live up to their promises here as well. Amazon's site is easy to navigate,amazon.ocm and provides ready access to the information you want. Shop around,amazon.ocm but if I were you,amazon.ocm I'd rather pay $5 at Amazon.com over a place I've never heard of. Recommended: Of course

      Amazon.com and other sellers offer millions of unique new, refurbished and used items. Amazon.com initially selling books then branched off into retail sales in categories such as health and personal care, jewelry and watches, gourmet food, sports and outdoors, apparel and accessories, books, music, DVDs, electronics and office, toys and baby, and home and garden.

      My Review on Amazon.com

      Not only that Amazon.com has a huge selection of products it is also a very trustworthy place to shop online. It is very user friendly, letting you decide if you choose to search by item or by category.

      They offer such an enormous array of various products If you need it, we've got it, and more! The majority of my orders have been for PC and electronic, plus reading material (is for my family) toys and some sets of digital video discs You can find all types of hard to locate items; for instance, I found a copy of Death on a Sunday Morning, which amazed me, because it isn't a well-known movie.

      You probably won't find that DVD at your local store. This is included towards the value that you can discover items quickly that otherwise you ride around or call over trying to locate.

      This just may be the least expensive that you would have found online. (I'm a believer.) and at other stores. Amazon.com sometimes has better deals than eBay.

      Establishing an account
      When you place your initial order, you will establish an account. It stores the details on your credit or debit card, so your future orders go quicker. Not only can you put several mailing addresses on your account at Amazon.com, it also usually doesn't matter if you have an item shipped to an address that is is no way related to the address on your card or other method of payment.

      This is a matter of little concern, perhaps, but I have yet to have anything fraudulent be charged to my account. Except for the entirely superfluous purchases my wife made!

      Every time you log on to Amazon, it keeps track of your buying habits and tracks down items related to those that you have purchased to later give you helpful suggestions reviews that may make it easier for you to shop overall. In addition, they currently offer "Plog" alerts delivered to your account.

      Reviews
      Reviews regarding the latest products, again according to your buying habits. Many of them are interesting to read, and have user comments about how useful they are. While reviews can be of considerable help in product selection, they don't actually pay out in cash. E-opinions allow for people to feel comfortable about giving honest reviews, even if they're negative, since they aren't from the company itself, so it's best to do a cross-reference with them if you can. I saw several negative comments on Amazon com. Because of these comments, I avoided the purchase, as it seemed likely that I would face the same problems if I used the item the way I had wanted to.

      Shipping and Handling
      You can get FREE shipping on some items at Amazon.com. (usually within 1 business week, but a little extra time may be required for some items). I never really became aware of it taking 5 business days, normally 3 or so. Might as well use FREE shipping where you can, unless there is some kind of emergency, because you can save a lot of money.

      For instance: if you bought some blank DVD's for $26.99, you can pick the free shipping option which is 5-9 business days, or pay an extra $7.35 to speed up the process with 3-5 days. $13.45 is the rate for 3 business days, or a rate of $23.45 to ship overnight (Tuesday is the day the orders for the weekend show up).

      Watch out because Amazon.com uses other vendors sometimes, and the products may not qualify for free shipping. While purchasing something online that comes from a 3rd party just seems a little too risky for me personally, but I will buy items from them directly.

      Amazon's Packaging
      Amazon.com takes great care in packaging goods for shipment. Always use proper packing materials, which may include packing peanuts or bubble wrap (not the edible type, however I believe my kid gobbled one up, even though he doesn't touch healthy food... Go figure).

      The Customer Service
      From what I know, the Customer Service system that Amazon has worked out is smooth running and appealing to me personally, though I haven't had the need to ever use it. It's best to let them have your number and wait for them to call you instead of trying to call them. You won't be stuck with a merry-go-round of questions, pressing buttons that don't even apply to your situation. You will be allowed to leave the time as either "currently" or in 5, 10 or 15 minutes.

      In addition, you get the option to send an email message if you like, which you enter directly on their website. I do believe this is an original concept, particularly when they keep their word about the call back you entered. It doesn't bother me when they say it takes a full day, just so they don't exceed the deadline they set themselves. This is something I find really bothersome. They'll do what they say because they are reliable. Amazon's site is easy to navigate, and provides ready access to the information you want.

      The safety of buying from an established and reliable company outweighs the inconvenience of paying a few more dollars.

      Recommended:
      Yes, because of their excellent reputation we can wholeheartedly recommend them.
