Dear Zeeshan,                

 

Following up on my last communication, I am pleased to announce that Athgo is back with its 4^th Global Innovation Forum at the World Bank hq in Washington, DC from August 10-12, 2011. This carefully redesigned program aims to incite individual action and engagement in Climate Change affairs through entrepreneurship by way of information communication technology and the resource-rich social media. We have an exclusive registration offer for our friends and alums, ($95, normally at $250), if signed up by April 27, 2011 (the seats are limited).

 

This three-day private event titled, Climate Change and Constructive Entrepreneurship, brings together 200 young people from around the world to facilitate candid outcome-oriented dialogue with corporate executives, diplomats, and area experts leading to development of business concepts that maximize financial as well as socio-economic and environmental returns.

 

The three most promising solutions developed by the participating young entrepreneurs will receive venture development grants.
