There’s a lot of buzz about e-learning and business/life coaching, so you can imagine my surprise when I saw these statistics: People in India, Brazil and China invest the most worldwide.
The United Kingdom and the United States spend the least on advancing their personal and business growth. Jessica Wolf, CEO and Co-founder of Skye is here to fix that with a brilliant solution and constant improvement of her company.
If you never thought the coffee sector needed to be disrupted, consider this: Coffee can only be purchased after some company along this supply chain roasts the green coffee beans the way they think it should taste. Another consideration in the sector is the 25M coffee farming families who live below the poverty line. Bunafr’s vision is to help these farmers by democratizing coffee roasting, and to allow coffee lovers to have it their way.
I’m convinced that entrepreneurs are different than regular working people. They see opportunities and jump in, overcoming the risks and setbacks. The dynamic duo of Harry Dubke and Perry Griffith spotted something in the short-term housing market nearby to universities.
