Jonathan Ortmans | Entrepreneurship; it's gloriously messy, fun, creative & definately global

".. We wanted the world to know Silicon Valley didn’t have a monopoly on entrepreneurship, and that we wouldn’t judge the citizens of a nation based on their geopolitics - the raw talent in Silicon Valley is not genetic or unique, it was a combination of factors untapped in large parts of the world, and we set out to create that globally - this was our theory of change.." - Jonathan Ortmans, President and Founder of the Global Entrepreneurship Network, speaking with me at Global Congress in Melbourne.
