For those of you that haven’t already bought your tickets, please join us tomorrow night for a celebration of Agora Partnerships 4th Anniversary. This is really a great organization - I worked with them over in the summer assisting them with their El Salvador expansion plan and I promise that you will have a great time at the event. Agora promotes economic development in Central American countries by investing directly in and providing technical assistance and consulting services to small businesses. These small businesses can be engines for accelerating development and Agora provides capital that is badly lacking and addresses the “missing middle” (bigger than microfinance clients but smaller than traditional bank clients). Agora's approach to helping businesses and its dedication to building a culture of entrepreneurship in the developing world is incredibly inspiring. The event promises to be a lot of fun and you will get a chance to hear from Agora's co-founders, Ben Powell and Ricardo Teran.
Date: Tuesday November 3
Time: 6:30-9:30
Place: Gabarron Foundation, Carriage House Center for the Arts 149 East 28th St. (at Lexington)
Purchase tickets at: www.agorapartnerships.org
Hope to see you there!
