Imagine you were on a flight and had the good luck of sitting next to an inspiring entrepreneur. And as you got talking to him or her, you heard their stories, brimming with hits and misses, triumphs, and troubles. Think of it is as an opportunity to have a fireside chat with some remarkable entrepreneurs.
