Entrepreneurs at the City Club: Endeavor 10.15.08


“Can we have some music on,” my Endeavor contact politely requested. Actually, it was already on. There was such a buzz of chatter throughout the room, the sound had been drowned out. It isn’t hard to imagine that 140 international entrepreneurs would have so much to talk about. On Wednesday, October 15th, the City Club had the honor of hosting an all day meeting an evening reception for a International organization named Endeavor. Endeavor is an organization aimed at going into developing countries, searching out high-potential entrepreneurs and providing tools to pull them up into success. Thus creating role models with in turn inspires entire communities to move forward and create stable economic growth.



The City Club was just 1 stop on the tour of the Bay Area, for this international group of guests, who also visited Facebook and Google! The meeting portion of the day at the City Club included Breakfast, wonderful and insightful guest speakers from T.P.G Capital, Joie de Vivre and Salesforce, and Lunch in the Main Dining Room. Then everyone was invited downstairs to the Café where the organizers let them loose for plenty of idea sharing, networking, tastey bites and drinks.
