“Entrepreneurship is not just about building a business. It’s about embracing and building your life. It’s about making mistakes, facing your fears, love and loss. It’s about stepping out into the unknown and having faith in yourself. It’s about forward movement and thinking, even when the outlook is foggy. That’s why I say, my name is Alicia Morga and I’m an entrepreneur.”
It was an eventful evening as Hispanic Net held their 2010 Annual Dinner. Once again at the Stanford University Faculty Club, the evening started with an informal reception followed by the dinner and featured program.
The highlights of the evening included:
