Get GEE to the Baltics! As part of our program, we have the opportunity to participate in an international immersion experience. Cohort 9 is going to be headed to the Baltics this May. We will be going throughout Finland, Latvia, Lithuana, and Estonia. We will be meeting with entrepreneurs, community leaders, and government officials to discuss entrepreneurship and learn about their entrepreneurial climate and how they succeed.
This is a once in a lifetime experience for us. As we prepare to embark on our trip, we are asking for you, supporters of GEE, to help get us to the Baltics. We have launched a campaign to help raise funds to make this trip a possibility. Any amount of donation is appreciated. If you are willing to donate, we will also promote your company on our Global Entrepreneurship social media pages. Please refer to our fundraising site: rebelraiser.unlv.edu/gee to contribute and to get to know the GEE students.
