This week’s guest is Glenn Llopis. He is the prototype of the new entrepreneur whose success lies in steadfast character, passion for life and an ability to marry social responsibility with ground-breaking products and services. He combines a celebrated UCLA education with fast-tracked years at the Gallo Wine Company and Sunkist where he became the youngest senior manager in the company’s 100 year history. Leading the successful turnaround of Sunkist’s juice beverage division opened the door for his next endeavor, the vice president of the $1 billion Norway Seafood Company at only 30 years old.
In the decade since, Llopis has parlayed his traditional experience into nontraditional ventures that have been featured in The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Fortune, Larry King Live, Good Morning America, The Financial Times, Advertising Age, Brandweek, MSNBC, Yahoo! News and others. He has also authored more than 30 articles appearing in these and other business publications.

If I say just reading Mr. Llopis’ biograpy and achievements at such a young age make me feel tired and old, that’s probably the wrong attitude, right? So I will say it’s impressive, and the fact that’s he devoting his time and energy into such diverse, entrepreneurial endeavors speaks very highly of him.
This is one ep I’ll have to listen to more than one time to take in all the info that was put forth, but one thing I have glommed onto already is meetup.com. From just my quick once-over, that seems like a great place to meet like-minded people, even in my tiny hometown.
