Entrepreneurial Bash

November 17

When you hear about incredibly successful start-ups like Groupon, do you ever wonder what inspired the founders to start in the first place? And then, how they launched, and what caused them to succeed so far beyond the average?

These questions captivated one entrepreneur, Robert Jordan, who spent four years interviewing 45 champion entrepreneurs for his book How They Did It: Billion Dollar Insights from the Heart of America. The book was the inspiration for the Great Lakes Entrepreneurial Bash coming up on November 17. The Entrepreneurial Bash hosts an extraordinary panel of founders who will share how they started and grew companies to $100 million+ success. Dane Miller took Indiana-based Biomet from scratch to $12 billion in value. Mike Domek couldn’t afford a computer when he started TicketsNow in his apartment but sold to TicketMaster for $282 million.

Hear from champions who've been where you've been. Whether you are a company owner, a seasoned executive or just starting out, the Entrepreneurial Bash is inspiration to charge you up. To register, go to entrepbash.com and use code GEW2011 to receive $15 off. Act now, seating is limited.
