Rizal Philippines

A Filipino entrepreneur is making waves these days.  His name is Alan Carascaso who heads a company that matches funders with start ups. (Match up Commerce?)  He was featured at CNN this morning.

His advice to tycoon wannabees:

1.  Have compelling vision (some say mesmerizing, enchanting) main value proposition
2.  Execute well

For this you need a great team, and even search for mentors to help you succeed.
