[...] We’re right smack in the middle of EntrepreneurshipWeek USA so now is a great time to hold a Business Book Contest. [...]

Hey Ben: we are planning on coming to Montreal in July for the Just for Laughs Festival. My son is an aspiring comic and this will be a part of his schooling.

So I was thinking we could organize a “Blog Entrepreneur Week” event about the same time. Everyone is declaring entrepreneur weeks, if the Kaufmann Foundation can do it, why not “Greg & Friends”?

I know you folks have the event in May in Chicago but I will not be able to make it.

I was thinking how we could perhaps do an event – where each sponsoring city takes a day and holds the event. Each city could stream/podcast the event and then everyone could take in each event.

Just an idea but I would be wiling to contribute a collaborative space where we could discuss, develop and plan.

Everyone would be welcome – we would take the time to plan it for 2008.

All about entrepreneurship and blogging. What you think?

Maybe we should start a “Blog Entrepreneur Week”, any takers?

I can’t imagine they would tell you not to participate in a web-based activity just because you’re north of the border! Canadians have great entrepreneurs, too! :)

Wendy – very cool. Seems like a great opportunity for bloggers to get some more attention!

Wonder if they let Canadians participate? *grin*

Ben, thanks for letting us know about this upcoming event. We’ll be sure to mention it on our website, too.

You can also host ‘online activities’ during Entrepreneurship Week. They will post a link to you if you plan on doing something.

For example, I’m going to blog all week about how to start a blogging business, with case studies, a highlight of top posts, etc. This will be old news for a lot of my regular readers, but I’m hoping for some outreach that week. :)
