Global Entrepreneurship Week / Croatia

    Anthem to entrepreneurship

    June, 2008

    Being aware how music and sports have great impact on young people all over the globe we discussed how to bring closer to the wider community the simmilarity between sports and entrepreneurship. Both, sports and entrepreneurship, need teams to be successful.

    We came to the idea that Croatian talented musitians, not yet well know to the public but very eager to do something different, could contribute to the global celebration of entrepreneurship by creating an anthem for entrepreneurs throughout the globe.
