These are among the first words Mr. Clifton Taulbert uttered during our chance interview in April, 2008.

Today, through a partnership with the Kauffman Foundation, that chance interview is being transformed into a two-part learning initiative designed to inspire and engage America’s youth in the unlimited opportunities that an entrepreneurial mindset can provide.
