Evolving Digital Self

The daughter of an entrepreneur, Julie Meyer never had a chance to escape the same fate.

Going to Paris, France at age 21 to 'faire fortune' and to escape being the baby of the family, she soon realised that she found herself in a moment of transformational change in Europe in the late 1980's. With German grandparents, a failure to learn French at school (un echec total), and fascinated by the coming together of the European market and the spread of freedom and free enterprise, she stayed, getting an MBA in 1997 at INSEAD, the leading European business school where she now sits on the Board of Directors and was named one of their top 50 alumni, and building the first social network for Internet entrepreneurs in 1998-2000, First Tuesday, which she sold for $50 million in July 2000, and many credited with igniting the Internet generation in Europe.

She was instrumental in the early stages of lastminute.com, WGSN, Espotting, Skype, Zopa, SpinVox and Monitise. She and her team have sold businesses to Google (BeatThatQuote – March 2011 – quadrupling the founder's own expectations for exit valuation), EMI (Digital Stores - where the founder has become Head of Ecommerce), and private equity.

With some amazing people, she has built Ariadne Capital since 2000 on the back of a couple of core principles: back men and women of steel who are pursuing the inevitable and re-imagining their industries as ecosystems, and aggregate the right talent and capital to enable their success. She is someone who wants to build new systems for the inclusion of all, and to help smart people win. She is a huge believer in the human spirit, and believes we are all on the planet to deliver a unique contribution to the world.

She created the EntrepreneurCountry concept because she felt the world should go where entrepreneurs go everyday, and issued a global invitation to become a citizen in Sep 2013.

Dr. Heidi and Jeff Jones, founder of the Family Recovery Solution, talk about the challenges of addiction and the impact on families

Jeff is a Licensed Professional Counselor, and holds certifications of Certified Addiction Counselor III, and Certified Intervention Professional. He has expanded the context of addiction and created a three-phase program that empowers families to safeguard their loved one in an addictive cycle or recovery, while they engage in a process to stop the addiction cycle in this generation. It is learning the three linear phases and integrating them into interactions, which takes repetition – but over time, increases resiliency and allows for addiction in the family to be an opportunity for transformation for the whole family.

Transformation starts with a change in thinking. Transformation continues when we are supported in that change. Jeff has created conditions for many families at a time to be supported in this change.
