Introducing MyEO Premier Groups
Since its launch in 2012, MyEO has been helping members get more out of their memberships by giving them the tools and outlets they need to personalize their EO experiences. Now we are taking things up a notch by introducing Premier Groups, which are designed to support growing areas of our membership, including women entrepreneurs, social entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs at or under the age of 30, among others. Here’s a snapshot of several groups and what their member champions are saying about each:
MyEO Women of EO
INSPIRING FEMALE BUSINESS LEADERS MyEO
Women of EO is a dynamic group that gives women entrepreneurs in EO an opportunity to engage at scheduled events, empowers them through powerful connections and ongoing dialogue, and spotlights their strengths through the Women of EO Leadership Summit, where in August, more than 100 women from 30 chapters and nine regions united to learn, grow and network.
“Participating in the first-ever summit inspired me to continue supporting women around the world in their entrepreneurial journeys. The friendships available through this group have motivated me to take this meaningful movement to the next level.”
—Marsha Ralls, EO DC
MyEO Engage
SUPPORTING SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURS
In recent years, there has been a global movement toward building businesses that provide a social impact. In this spirit, MyEO Engage was formed to connect members who have built social enterprises or are interested in learning how to do so. The group offers opportunities to learn and grow by sharing contacts and resources globally, and provides a platform for members to exchange ideas and success stories. There is also an annual EO Engage Social Business Summit that brings these members together, with next year’s event to be held in India.
“I’ve had the opportunity to learn from some amazing members who have built some incredible social businesses. It is heartwarming to know that so many members are engaging the world, and it made me realize how much more we can do as a global community.”
—George Gan, EO Malaysia
MyEO Entrepreneurs≤30
UNITING YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS
Young entrepreneurs are faced with their own set of unique challenges, requiring experience sharing on a different scale and connections with likeminded peers. Enter MyEO Entrepreneurs≤30, which brings together all EO members who are at or under the age of 30 worldwide. This new group is creating a community that connects online and offline, builds bonds and offers life-changing events.
“I travel frequently for work, and I know firsthand how valuable it is to have a global network of friends. Whether it’s finding the best co-working space in Mumbai, finding out how to get around Kuala Lumpur or getting a crash course on American employment law, having a network of peers who are faced with similar challenges has been invaluable to me.”
—Cédric Waldburger, EO Switzerland – Zürich
