Each year, Global Entrepreneurship Week/USA draws high-profile, celebrity entrepreneurs to events all over the country to serve as keynote speakers, panelists and judges.
2010 will not be an exception... and names are starting to trickle out. Here are just a few of the most recent who have popped up on our radar.
Following up on his participation in NYSE Euronext’s Mentoring Madness last year, Blake Mycoskie, founder and Chief Shoe Giver of TOMS Shoes, will speak at the Creativity World Forum in Oklahoma City and at Lorain County Community College in Elyria.
In Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Marquette University’s College of Business Administration events will feature Jeff Hoffman, founder and former CEO of Priceline.com and Steve Wozniak, the former business partner of Steve Jobs who cofounded Apple, who will deliver a live video presentation to students at Marquette.
In Washington, DC, tech entrepreneur Ted Leonsis -- who recently acquired the NBA's Washington Wizards and also happens to own the NHL's Washington Capitals -- is headlining an event at Georgetown University.
