EPISODE DESCRIPTION
In this episode, we have billionaire entrepreneur and innovator, Jim Sorenson, who is using his genius to create real change not only in the United States but across the world. Jim has built upon the impressive legacy of his late father, James LeVoy Sorenson, and holds over 60 patents in various medical inventions. In the digital and tech fields, Jim's team was among the world leaders in digital compression software development, and they were responsible for powering Apple's QuickTime video player. Jim also produced an affordable video phone for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals using American Sign Language.
In 2012, Jim founded the Sorenson Impact Foundation, an organization that provides grants and funding to startups that are disrupting markets at home and abroad. These companies focus on making a difference in underserved communities around the world and foster sustainable growth for a positive business and investment landscape for the future.
Today, Jim and I will discuss sustainable growth and innovation, the concept of impact investing, and best practices for businesses targeting positive growth. We'll also explore how businesses can generate revenue while keeping an ethical focus on making the world a better place. Join us as we dive into these important topics.
WHAT IS BRUNCH WITH BILLIONAIRES?
In Brunch with Billionaires, we discuss how we can shift the perception of billionaires and money. While some people might think of billionaires as flashy and greedy, there are many who use their wealth to make a positive impact in the world.
We need to showcase these leaders who are doing the right thing with their money, rather than focusing on those who are obsessed with flashy cars and material possessions. Money isn't inherently bad, and we should change the way we think about it.
Instead of seeing money as a symbol of greed, we should view it as a tool for creating positive change. Money is energy, and we can channel that energy towards giving back to society.
By highlighting the good work that billionaires are doing, we can inspire others to use their resources for the greater good. Let's change the conversation about money and billionaires, and start celebrating those who are making a difference in the world.
