The Other Hundred Entrepreneurs is a unique photo-book showcasing
the stories of everyday entrepreneurs whose achievements deserve to
be celebrated, part of a unique global initiative to provide a
counterpoint to the mainstream media consensus about some of
today's most important issues. Instead of conventional success
stories about tech billionaires and elite MBAs, the book contains
100 stories of everyday people who have started businesses, big and
small, and taken control of their lives. These entrepreneurs run
their own businesses without ever hiring an investment bank,
planning an exit strategy, dreaming of an IPO or even receiving a
loan. Together, these portraits from all over the world present a
more representative picture of entrepreneurship than the one we get
from the covers of Forbes, Fortune or SUCCESS Magazine. The first
book in The Other Hundred initiative celebrated a richly diverse
selection of ordinary people living extraordinary lives all over
the world.
