Next Week in Edutainment | October 16 - October 20

Upcoming Speakers

At 16, Jiazi Guo moved to the US with no knowledge of English, but she was determined to succeed. Jiazi quickly immersed herself in learning and earned a full scholarship to attend UC Berkeley. There, she discovered her passion for finance and entrepreneurship and started fundraising for underprivileged children. Eventually, Ms. Guo became the head of America for LEGO Ventures, the corporate venture arm of LEGO. Although she achieved success, Jiazi felt that something was missing, and she wanted to make a more significant impact on people's lives directly. That's why she founded ETZ Soft Inc. with the mission to democratize access to the potential financial benefits of cryptocurrencies for all Americans by bringing Wall Street to Main Street and teaching people how to invest in their future. This event is co-produced by Bizworld.org. Register Here
