Jack Ma Webcast. Here. Tomorrow Morning. 4:30am PST.

This morning I was contacted by a member of The Dilenschneider Group with the opportunity to be among the hosts for a webcast by Jack Ma entitled "Embracing the Spirit of Entrepreneurship." I'll have a post up tomorrow morning to host the live webcast on this page. The post will be up at 3:30am PST, and the webcast begins here at 4:30am PST.

Here's the official blurb from the Asia Society:
Known as China’s Web King, Jack Ma is Chairman and CEO of Alibaba Group, the leading e-commerce company in China and one of the world’s largest online trading platforms. A pioneer in the Chinese Internet industry, Jack is recognized as the man who put China on the Net. Over a decade ago Jack founded China’s first Internet-based company and has since transformed China’s Internet industry. Jack was named by Fortune Magazine as one of the “25 Most Powerful Businesspeople in Asia” in 2005, “Businessperson of the year” by BusinessWeek in 2006, and one of the 30 “World’s Best CEOs” by Barron’s in 2008. Jack Ma will speak about building Alibaba, and share his insight on technological innovation and development as the driving forces of the global e-commerce industry.
I don't think that Jack Ma has ever been accused of being boring. You'd have a hard time finding a more engaging speaker. I'm looking forward to his talk tomorrow, and hope you'll join me tomorrow.
