I am honored to launch Global Entrepreneurship Week from California, bringing together more than 75 countries in a celebration of the entrepreneurial spirit that is so strong here in our great state. California’s pivotal role in the global economy is made possible by our state’s innovation and ingenuity – and Global Entrepreneurship Week is an important part of recognizing the individuals and businesses who will help lead our economy into the future.

Great idea and event. I visited the LA Renaissance Hotel following the Governors’ Climate Summit and was able to meet the VP of Facebook. We spoke and he also gave me a coupon for Ad space on Facebook. However, the issue is the code does not work. Please let him know this so he can stop providing bad cards. If you can provide me his email so I can contact him that would be most wonderful.
be welll,
