Event: Rainmakers LIVE! – The Argonauts Journey

Meet the author of The New Argonauts: Regional Advantage in a Global Economy, the acclaimed AnnaLee Saxenian, in NUSEA’s bi-annual mixer this Nov 16th. Our partner in Silicon Valley (California, USA) the National University of Singapore Entrepreneurs’ Association will bring to you a highly select group of people to talk about immigrant entrepreneurs who take their experience in Silicon Valley back to their home countries.

Based on the book, The New Argonauts: Regional Advantage in a Global Economy by Prof AnnaLee Saxenian, Rainmakers LIVE! – The Argonauts’ Journey will be featuring Prof AnnaLee herself, moderating a panel of prominent Argonauts from India, China, Israel and Singapore. Argonauts are successful immigrant entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley who return to fuel the growth of entrepreneurship in their home countries by influencing government policies, starting businesses, funding new businesses and mentoring other start-ups.

Currently Singapore is still facing a huge obstacle in entrepreneurship, while countries like India, Taiwan, regions in China and Israel have taken off as entrepreneurial hubs. We need Argonauts, and you could be one of them.
