Writer John Hall believes that the conferences show many signs of entrepreneurs’ altruism, promising growth, and the ability to address real-world problems.
Hall also believes that not only are entrepreneurs demonstrating viable business models, they’re bringing an upbeat attitude to the table that is defying the depressive sense from the media.
“I was struck by the stark contrast between event organizers, sponsors, and attendees and the doom and gloom we read daily in the headlines,” writes John Hall. “I was surrounded by people excited to share their experiences, innovations, and hopes for the immediate future.”
