“ENTREPRENEURSHIP | SPREADING THE GOSPEL” AN EFFORT TO PROMOTE ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD IS BEARING FRUIT “It is routine for entrepreneurs to consult their networks of mentors in Silicon Valley. But in much of the world, such networks are notable by their absence —and so, too, are examples of Silicon Valley-style successful entrepreneurship. Changing this was why Endeavor was created in 1997.” “ENDEAVOR’S MAGIC WORKS MOST POWERFULLY IN ITS SELECTION PROCESS... The aim is to identify those who can succeed on a scale that will make them into national role models, and then provide them with every possible support. But the process is designed to benefit all entrants, by helping them define their visions more clearly.” “ENDEAVOR HAS “CREATED ISLANDS OF HOPE,” says [Endeavor Entrepreneur and Board Member Wences] Casares. Now it must find ways to “change continents, not just little islands.” This has been recognized by Endeavor’s global board, which recently adopted an ambitious plan to expand to 25 countries by 2015.” OMIDYAR NETWORK COMMITS $10 MILLION DOLLARS TO SUPPORT ENDEAVOR OPERATIONS In 2008, Endeavor received the single largest contribution in its history when Omidyar Network committed up to $10 million to support Endeavor’s operations worldwide. Omidyar Network’s support will enable Endeavor to expand rapidly into more emerging economies, select more High-Impact Entrepreneurs, provide stronger services for High-Impact Entrepreneurs, and share the inspiring stories of Endeavor Entrepreneurs with a larger audience. ENDEAVOR THANKS OMIDYAR NETWORK FOR ITS GENEROSITY AS WE EMBARK ON THIS DYNAMIC PARTNERSHIP. Four million dollars of Omidyar Network’s support are conditional matching funds. Therefore, every dollar that you invest in Endeavor will be doubled through Omidyar Network. Your support will have greater impact than ever before! “Endeavor’s innovative approach, potential for enormous scale, and ability to show tangible results make it a natural fit for the Omidyar Network portfolio, and we’re excited to work with them to expand their reach to 25 countries over the next several years.” Matt Bannick, Managing Partner, Omidyar Network Incoming Global Board Member, Endeavor 20 21
“I think it’s a duty and it’s a passion for me to take the knowledge that I have learned, the network that I have built and the capabilities that I have developed and make them available for entrepreneurs.” ENDEAVOR MODEL Fadi Ghandour, Founder & CEO, Aramex; Endeavor Jordan, Founding Board Member “[Aramex] should be the role model of a self-empowered Arab company, run by Arab brainpower and entrepreneurship, succeeding on the world stage and enriching its own workers at the same time.” Thomas L. Friedman, The World is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century Version 3.0
