worth it

Men we look up to

Steve Jobs gave me infinite inspiration regarding almost every aspect of my life with all his speeches and quotes, and helped me discover my passion for lovebrands. 

Mark Zuckerberg founded what would be my career passion and path: Facebook, from which I discovered my love for Social Media strategies and online campaigns. 

But today I want to share what little I know about Bill Liao: I consider this man a 2012 hero, worth of following and looking up to.

Diplomat, investor, entrepreneur, business mentor, speaker, philanthropist, author and home schooling parent. Bill Liao founded WeForest.org and is a venture partner at SOS Ventures, a global venture capital and investment management firm. Also a special diplomatic envoy for St Kitts and Nevis for sustainable development and the environment. Bill’s WeForest.org in an international not-for-profit organization combating global warming in the most natural way possible by sustainably and holistically reforesting previously degraded land.

Bill Co-Founded the free CoderDojo movement with James Whelton to assist young people to learn how to be creators (I’ll call them prosumers)and not just users. 

Yes, exactly what you just read: In CoderDojo, children start learning html and coding in an interactive environment since 9 years old. He is basically, along with James Whelton, giving them the tools for their life future, motivating creativity and entrepreneur skills.

At least, I think he’s worth looking up and having a glance at what he’s done.
