President’s Message: New beginnings and self-reflection

Posted by AIIP 
· Tuesday, June 7th, 2022 at 09:00 AM 

by Denise Carter As I embark on any new venture, I always like to take a little time to reflect on what brought me to this point.

President’s Message: Hiding in Plain Sight

Posted by AIIP

AIIP: Celebrating and Supporting Global Entrepreneurs

Posted by AIIP 
· Tuesday, November 17th, 2020 at 09:00 AM 

Jennifer Pflaumer Miriam-Webster’s Dictionary defines an entrepreneur as “one who organizes, manages, and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise.” No one ever said it was easy, but the thrill and satisfaction that come from owning and managing your own business are worth every bit of the effort.
