THE RETURN OF 10 WEEKS OF TENWEST
Can you believe that TENWEST is only ten weeks away?!
To count us down and get you excited for a week of technology, entrepreneurship and creativity, we're bringing back our weekly “Ten Weeks of TENWEST” newsletter where we highlight some of our awesome programming.
Can you believe we got Guy Raz as our keynote?!
If you don't know Guy, his award-winning podcast “How I Built This” is considered THE go-to, must-listen resource for entrepreneurs and innovators. Like seriously, we're fangirling over here that he will be coming to Tucson! He'll take the stage at Centennial Hall as our headlining keynote on March 26th thanks to our title sponsor Arizona Commerce Authority and in partnership with Arizona Arts Live.
To get you inspired for his keynote, “7 Lessons I Learned From the World's Greatest Entrepreneurs” the TENWEST team has compiled some of our favorite “How I Built This” episodes for you. Whether you've never listened to HIBT or want a good episode recommendation, we've got you covered.
TENWEST PICKS: FAVORITE “HOW I BUILT THIS EPISODES”
Megan, Senior Program Manager at Startup Tucson recommends The Tetris Company: Henk Rogers and Siete Family Foods with Miguel and Veronica Garza
Liz, CEO of Startup Tucson, recommends you check out Canva: Melanie Perkins.
Gina, Startup Tucson's Board Chair, thought the episode of Spanx with Sara Blakely was innovative and honest about what it takes to be an entrepreneur.
Max, our graphic artist extraordinaire, would like you to check out Jimmy Wales's story on how he built Wikipedia.
