Entrepreneurship Division Colleagues-- PLEASE check this out... I know
I've pestered you about Startup Weekend before but...
I just returned from the Startup Weekend Organizers Global Summit -
unbelievable. SW is as good as it gets for truly experiential entrep
education. Staggeringly constructivistic learning. In other words,
they get it. Deeply.
But the crew of organizers around the world is even more staggering in
terms of passion AND talent, i.e., you'd love 'em!
(Put it this way... *I* felt like a total slacker.)
Amazing story - a joint Israeli-Palestinian weekend entrepreneurship
learning event that somehow got past all the barriers on both sides.

Seriously.
Don't you want in?
You should check this out ASAP. Startup Weekend is tied into Global
Entrepreneurship Week and is now backed by Kauffman. PLEASE let me
know I can help get YOU involved. (And you ARE signed up with GEW,
yes?)

(@startupweekend - follow)
* SW also has a FB page
.... plus please feel free to ping or cc me (@entrep_thinking,
norris.krueger@gmail.com or my FB, LinkedIn pages)
- I am dying to get more of you involved. (And those of
you in cities where SW is already rockin', you probably have already
heard from me or soon will..)
*p.s.* Added bonus for those of you who have colleagues who think
"Anyone can teach entrepreneurship"... SW is a way to really prove
them wrong.

Just Entrepreneur It!
