Today’s dynamic international marketplace is driven by innovation. And that innovation often comes to us at the hands of entrepreneurs who somehow see an opportunity in the marketplace most of us simply can’t visualize. That is, unless you’re an innovating entrepreneur yourself. These enterprising business people have a special knack for the creation of a product or service - and here’s the important part - that people will actually pay for. It is one thing to have a great idea, quite another to have one that translates to value creation. And then there’s the strategy and operations skills required to get the business up and running. So much goes into creating a business, it’s no wonder the vast majority fail before they go on to realize success. This week, we celebrate innovators and entrepreneurs who keep at it and let their passion guide their next enterprise.
