Jim Berlin, founder and CEO of Logistics Plus, was featured alongside other successful entrepreneurs in the Ninth Annual State of Entrepreneurship Address presented by the Kauffman Foundation. You can watch a replay of the video here (Jim appears around the 12:00 mark in a showcase video shown at the event).
“Too many are left out of our economy. The long-term decline in entrepreneurship has dragged down productivity, wages and living standards for all Americans. Put simply—fewer startups mean a lower quality of life. We need to eliminate barriers for anyone who has an idea to start and grow a business, and we need to redefine the meaning of “entrepreneur.” This is how we work toward a new, inclusive and empowering economy.”
The 2018 State of Entrepreneurship Address featured speeches by:
Wendy Guillies, president and CEO of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
Victor W. Hwang, vice president of Entrepreneurship at the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
Hello world! We (the Logistics Plus family) would like to welcome you to BerlinsWall.com. We created Berlin’s Wall as a writing outlet for our respected, founder and CEO, Jim Berlin. The website, which is still a bit of work in progress, was created to be both a written and visual expression for our leader (see the photos and memorabilia in the masthead, shown below, which many of us have come to associate with Jim).
According to Jim … “Berlin’s Wall will be a way that I keep folks in touch with the goings on at LP. As with my Thought for the Day these past 21 years, some thoughts may be serious and hopefully deep, others whimsical and foolish (probably lots of those unfortunately ?). It will just be a view from the deck of the Starship LP as we continue ONWARD through this universe we are traversing. This great LP Adventure.”
On so, on behalf of the entire Logistics Plus global family of employees (now 450+ strong), we hope you enjoy Jim’s writings, ramblings, wit, and wisdom … just as we do every day!
