"Pure Entrepreneurs"


"Pure Entrepreneurs" 12/27/2004 03:50 PM
Scott Kirsner has a good piece in the Boston Globe appreciating "pure entrepreneurs" who go ahead and build stuff without asking for funding or permission. One of those he cites is my friend Pito Salas who is creating BlogBridge, an aggregator with lots of potential, currently in alpha. He also points to Paul Cosway who is working on what sounds like a very cool, portable Internet radio, called "Radeo." And he interviews Dan Bricklin and Bill Warner (Avid). Three cheers for pure entrepreneurs! BTW, I don't know Paul Cosway, but I can attest that Pito Salas is not "loopy" (which...

Guerrilla Entrepreneurs


Guerrilla Entrepreneurs 03/28/2005 08:09 AM
Interestingly, the Pentagon is slowly starting to realize that the boiling Iraqi insurgency is closely connected to criminal activity (this shift likely manufactured the story in the Times below). More is available from the Was hington Times:

A Pentagon official said the more that intelligence agencies analyze the insurgency, the clearer it becomes that a large part is criminal, not nationalistic. 

"We have always realized there was a criminal element in the insurgency that wasn't driven by devotion to Saddam. The numbers may be higher than we first estimated," the official said.

I am still convinced that they don't know what this means.  This insurgency and other global insurgencies continue to confound and confuse our analysts.  For more, see Guerrilla Entrepreneurs.

Great entrepreneurs and the Blogosphere


Great entrepreneurs and the Blogosphere 08/02/2004 10:40 PM

Dave Sifry and Greg Reinacker are just like me.

If somebody bad mouthed my product, like I did theirs this morning - I'd be all over them like a sticky t-shirt in a hot muggy NYC afternoon.

So I just got off the phone with Mr. Technorati - who straightened me out about my watchlist URL (pointing to my old blog address) and Mr. NewsGator who earlier slapped me around for wrong RSS 1.0 feeds which don't include URLs.

Duh! My bad! Sorry guys! This is my official apology I owe you joints. Or Vodka Gimlets. Or large piles of Spare Ribs.

I had never used a RSS 1.0 feed before, being an XML, old school, Radio kind of guy and between that - and losing my WYSIWYG editing - I've been a cat out of water.

Or a hippo in a rat pack. Or some other sort of weirdo metaphor.

So now my Technorati is rocking and I'm tuned back into who is talking about me and what - and I'm amassing huge stock piles of juicy feeds and learning mroe to sync up my NewsGator.

So in one sense - I had been spoiled - by Paolo and Matt and the eVectors team - and by Radio's simplicty and cleanliness of design.

It's not that MT is badly desigend - it's just that it's for gfeeks. Even TypePad is for geeks. But until I can ship some code that radically changes all this - I'm just gonna shut up and focus on taking baby steps.

Basic DLAs. Basic value added funtionality to humans. Like better nav, integrated designs, coolio UIs. The big stuff comes later.

And for now - I got my Technorati BACK - YAH!

And a rocking aggregator.

Now let's see - how do I set up this Moveable Poster thingie.......


Kidnapping Entrepreneurs in Iraq


Kidnapping Entrepreneurs in Iraq 03/28/2005 08:09 AM
NYT.  The kidnapping business in Iraq.  Scattered anecdotal evidence suggests that the epidemic of kidnapping, especially of children, is a force like no other in driving from Iraq the educated professionals who are critically needed for the rebuilding of the country. As stoic as Iraqis often are about the perils they face in their daily lives, kidnapping contributes to the national sense of instability and fuels mutual distrust - particularly because many kidnappings rely on people close to the target who pass information on net worth, daily habits and other matters of interest to hostage takers.

Technology makes it easier:

A profusion of mobile phones and SIM cards - memory chips for the phones - sold throughout Iraq from small and often unregistered shops made tracing calls from sophisticated kidnappers all but impossible, Colonel Faisel said. And he said that for all their help, American military and intelligence officials in Iraq had been slow to share surveillance technology that could aid the Iraqis in nailing the callers.

A highly decentralized business:

At least three different groups of kidnapping entrepreneurs became involved in his case, he said, the one that kidnapped him, another that guarded the container, and a third that tortured him periodically with steel-bristled brushes. The third group bargained with the first group to "purchase" him.

Entrepreneurs Who Don't Want Venture

Entrepreneurs Who Don't Want Venture
Capital
12/08/2003 04:41 AM
It seems like every few months a story just like this one show up somewhere about entrepreneurs (usually ones who have gone through the process before) are starting new companies without venture capital. The reporter (like in most of these articles) tries to make it out like this is a big conflict between those who "know better" and the venture capitalists. The truth seems quite different - and the story isn't supported by any of the actual quotes. Certainly there are entrepreneurs who get screwed by VCs, and there are many who go into the process the first time without realizing what they're giving up when they accept VC cash. However, the truth is that many businesses (and certain entrepreneurs) aren't right for VC money. Understanding what VCs are looking for, and what the process is like is important for anyone raising money. Then the entrepreneur can make the right decision about the best way to move forward. Sometimes that's with VC cash and sometimes it isn't. Everyone quoted in the article seems to understand that, but that's not as interesting a story for the paper. What would be better is if the press stopped making the implicit assumption that to do a startup you need to raise venture money - and that the companies that raise more money are the automatic powerhouses.

New Generation Of Entrepreneurs Not

New Generation Of Entrepreneurs Not
Driven By Money Alone
09/27/2004 12:29 AM
Michael Clouser writes "The number of college entrepreneurs is growing, but they are driven by something different, rather, they see technology as a hobby, and starting companies as self-satisfaction, rather than to make a bunch of money. Also, the number of college entrepreneurship courses continues to rise, despite the bubble burst." While I think it's great to hear stories suggesting more people are starting companies for the love of what they're doing, rather than simply the economic opportunity, these things do tend to go in a cycle. The reason people claim they're starting companies to do what they love is because not too many startups have been cashing out over the past few years. Should the cashing out part pick up some more, and you can bet that the quick startup flippers will be back in no time.

ASHOKA: A
LAUNCHING PAD FOR SOCIAL
ENTREPRENEURS
01/03/2005 02:42 PM
BillDrayton
In an article in this month's Fast Company, Keith Hammonds profiles an unlikely hero of social and environmental progressives: Ashoka founder Bill Drayton. Drayton, a former Director at McKinsey and the Environmental Protection Agency, is now a philanthropist with a difference: Ashoka provides a 'leg up' to those with vision, creativity, entrepreneurship and a strong ethical sense, by making them Ashoka 'fellows', who receive a stipend, funding for project costs, and the legal, management, intellectual and networking support of the Ashoka team. From a modest start 25 years ago, the group has grown to over 1500 fellows in 53 countries, including some highly celebrated and astonishingly creative social entrepreneurs who are household names in their home countries.

The support team includes representation from McKinsey (management consultants), Hill & Knowlton (PR) and the International Senior Lawyers Project (legal counsel). According to the group's website, "Ashoka Fellows are individuals who share qualities traditionally associated with business entrepreneurs — vision, innovation, determination, and long-term commitment — but are committed to systemic social change in Ashoka's areas of interest: learning/youth development, the environment, health, human rights, economic development, and civic engagement. Fellows receive up to a three-year financial stipend to allow them to concentrate fully on their programs, and in addition may apply for supplemental funding for collaborative projects and are eligible for training and technical assistance."

Here are a few examples of what Ashoka fellows are doing:
  • Anna Zuchetti of OACA in Peru has pioneered a sustainable development program for environmentally sensitive areas near exploding cities that is now recognized as a model for Latin America, and has won Anna a Schwab Foundation award.
  • Pisit Charnsnoh in Thailand has been honoured with a Rolex Associate Award for his work to preserve that country's coastal habitats, and in the process save the endangered dugong (sea cow).
  • David Green in the US has won a MacArthur Grant for establishing an enterprise for the manufacture and delivery of health care technologies for the developing world.
  • An international program, the Innovative Learning Initiative, is leveraging the successes and lessons learned by Ashoka fellows around the world who are focused on education of the young, identifying common principles and strategies that have effectively changed children's lives
What does it take to be an Ashoka Fellow? According to Fast Company's Fast Take, you need these five attributes:
  1. Is there a new idea? If there isn't, the rest doesn't matter. If it's new, is the idea going to fly? And will it be big enough to truly change society?
  2. Is this person creative? What is the quality of thinking? What is the history of her creativity? Experiences early in life are the best indicators.
  3. Is this person an entrepreneur? True social innovators need to change a pattern across society. They are drawn to problems, constantly searching for the next advance.
  4. What's the impact? Will it spread? Most entrepreneurs can easily seed their idea in one place. It's another thing to come up with a solution that will get traction elsewhere.
  5. Is there ethical fiber? To be effective, leaders have to be on the up and up. They must change relationships -- and that won't happen if there's no trust.
If you have these attributes, and an interest in projects in one or more of the six areas of interest noted in bold above, Ashoka may give you the start you need. And if you're looking for more inspiration, check out Fast Company's Social Entrepreneur award winners.

Breakfast between Global Leaders for
Tomorrow, Social Entrepreneurs and
Religious Leaders


Breakfast between Global Leaders for
Tomorrow, Social Entrepreneurs and
Religious Leaders
01/22/2004 06:59 AM

This morning, we had a breakfast between the Global Leaders for Tomorrow, Social Entrepreneurs and Religious Leaders. I got a great table with a broad range of people from developing nations, religious leaders, economists, and entrepreneurs.

We started out the discussion talking about the nature of money. We talked about how greed and the idea that more money means more happiness is compulsive behavior and the notion that more money makes you more happy may hold true in developing nations, but is not necessarily true in developed nations. We talked about how this notion of more money means more happiness may be contributing to some of the problems in society. One representative of a global financial organization talked about how similar to the "poverty line", maybe there should be a "greed line". An economist pointed out that there was a book written about economy as a religion where the author asserted that pollution should be moved to developing nations because poor people were worth less in a purely economic model. Obviously, this is not right, and we asked the religious leaders to address some of the issues such as caring, giving and happiness.

Religions are memories of history, rich with ritual and values. They need to create a double language, one for internal dialog and another to share ideas with others. One point I made was that many religions were designed for environments where people were still struggling to survive and the focus was on rituals and believes for such an environment. Many religions focused keeping people alive rather than providing them with a primary religious experience. For environments where the struggle to survive is not as big of an issue, it might be that religions need to help support people more with things such as their obsessions and ethics.

It was noted that people who live in developing nations still needed money and that it was important. However, it was pointed out that many of the economic values have a detrimental effect on developing nations such as promoting crime. It was also noted that many churches in developing nations focus on promotion economic values. (Join the church, get rich.) The notion of sharing and sacrifice which are very important values that religions promote are often subverted to raise money for the churches.

David Green of Project Impact in India talked about how he performs cataract surgery in India. He provides 1/3 of the procedures for free, 1/3 for a low cost and 1/3 for a high price. The rich pay the high price for first class service, but the basic operation is the same. He is able to subsidize the operation for the poor and still make money. He is so successful that instead of paying $300 for the lenses, he was able to create a manufacturing operation and lower the cost to $4 a lens and has become the second largest manufacturer in the world. He provided this as an example of a good economic model can provide a great deal of good.


WANTED:
ENTREPRENEURS TO DEVELOP CHEAPER,
BETTER-TASTING BOTANIC FOODS


WANTED:
ENTREPRENEURS TO DEVELOP CHEAPER,
BETTER-TASTING BOTANIC FOODS
12/24/2004 01:05 PM
veggies2If you're like me, you at least take a serious, and guilty, look in the Organic and Vegetarian section of your grocery store, but may be put off by the significantly higher cost of these products compared to less pure, less wholesome, meat- and dairy-containing products. Part of this is due to lack of volume of organic, vegan and vegetarian products, part of it is due to the fact that it takes more work to produce them, and part of it is due to the fact that many of these products are heavily processed and packaged. You can find these products in bulk, at cheaper prices, in natural/health food stores, and sometimes at local farmers' markets, but for most of us that means adding additional stops on your shopping trip, since you can't get all your groceries at these places.

A recent study indicated that the exploding European demand for organic products will only be sustained if the price premium relative to non-organic products is held to no more than 20-25%. My guess would be that North American consumers are much more price sensitive, and premiums will have to be reduced to no more than 10% to attain major market share.

Before botanic (meat-free, dairy-free, chemical-free) foods can start taking a big chunk out of the grocery market, and really start to have an impact on the quality of the food most people eat, on public health, on our beleaguered environment, and on the despicable practices and animal cruelty of factory farms, we need to solve these problems. That means we're going to have to be willing to be innovative and open-minded about both the process and products, provided this doesn't compromise the quality of these products or the nutritional, social and environmental objectives that are behind many people's choice to adopt a botanic diet. Last June I proposed a 10-point plan to take botanic foods mainstream:
  1. Rename vegan foods botanic foods, and vegans botanivores.
  2. Remind people that grow-your-own botanic food is free.
  3. Make botanic products available in bulk.
  4. Educate people that botanic foods are easy and quick to prepare, and delicious.
  5. Invent and celebrate botanic sauces.
  6. Merge the best of international botanic cuisine.
  7. Educate the public that botanic diets are healthy, and that many meats and other polluted foods are not.
  8. Invent delicious botanic substitutes for dairy and meat products.
  9. End agricultural subsidies.
  10. Educate people that a botanic diet can help you lose weight.
Essentially, everything we eat consists of some combination of protein, fat, carbohydrates, water, natural micronutrie nts (vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, enzymes etc.), and often artificial ingredients (preservatives, colourizers, texturizers, flavourizers, and inadvertent chemicals and other pollutants picked up in the production process). Where do we draw the line on botanic foods? I think we want them to be chemical and pollutant-free, which means they need to be organically produced. We don't want irradiated foods with their proven health hazards and nutritional damage. And we don't want genetically manufactured foods, because they interfere with and potentially destroy ecosystems. But as long as all the ingredients are natural and unpolluted, and the product is healthy and delicious, I don't think we should object to a little chemistry in the industrial kitchen. Hempburgers anyone? Since cellulose occurs naturally and makes an excellent fat substitute, can we find a way to use it as a food product without mixing it in a chemical soup as is done today? And instead of poisoning weeds and dousing crops with Frankenstein products like Round-Up, is there a way to make edible weeds a 'growth' industry?

Supposing you're an aspiring entrepreneur and you want to help meet the need for inexpensive yet wholesome, widely-available botanic foods. Points 3, 5 and 8 of my 10-point plan above would be excellent starting points for a new enterprise. My articles on Natural Enterprise can help you through the process of building the business, and here's a few additional thoughts specific to botanic food enterprises:
  • Many Hollywood actors and other celebrities are vegetarians or vegans. Consider asking them to endorse or even lend their name to your new product. They might not even charge you for it, and give you a great marketplace boost.
  • Other than price, the top criteria that most people use when deciding which foods to buy are convenience and flavour. Just like new products in any other industry, yours has to be better (more flavourful), cheaper, or faster (more convenient) than what's out there now, if it's going to succeed.
  • Consider working with the Food Science departments of universities -- lots of expertise at a modest cost.
  • According to one recent study, the major deterrent to buying organic foods is perishability, as more shoppers are choosing to shop for food less often. Keep shelf-life in mind as you develop your new products.
  • Several studies say ethnic foods are a fast-growing segment. There may be great opportunities for botanic ethnic products.
  • If you're going to get beyond the specialty stores and be mainstream, you're probably going to need to partner with some company that already has a foothold in the big grocery chains. In doing so, try to find a partner that shares your company's values.
  • Another rule of new product introduction is to make it easy for customers to switch to your product from something they already like. Research existing meat and dairy substitutes, and market your new product as a healthy, inexpensive, guilt-free substitute for something that is already very popular.
Why don't I start such an enterprise myself? I don't know very much about the food industry. And my knowledge and skills in chemistry and biology are abysmal. If you ever saw me in the kitchen you'd understand! But I'd be pleased to provide assistance any way I can to those entrepreneurs who have the industry knowledge and skill to make a go of it.

If you're not an aspiring entrepreneur, this is still an excellent time to Take the VegPledge, and learn more about the value of a botanic diet.
