"There's no entrepreneurship gene, but one attribute that successful entrepreneurs across the world share is being solutions focused, said Brandon Andrews – CEO, The Inexorable. "Over and over again, I've seen entrepreneurs who solve problems systematically and build community set their businesses on a growth path. I was excited to open Go Viral 2022 by sharing what I've learned about finding solutions from my own journey as an entrepreneur and that of others."
Since 2017, the Go Viral Network has empowered journalists, entrepreneurs, filmmakers, and musicians to use media, culture, business, and technology to connect with the world.
