Thank you for all the wonderful entrees to our I Am an Entrepreneur competition.  As entrepreneurs, you had the courage and passion to take an idea and make it reality either through video or the written word and we appreciate you sharing your experiences and celebrating the spirit of the entrepreneur with us.  The entrees were exceptional and the innovation displayed through the stories, the creation of the videos, or the writing was truly impressive.  We had many great entrees and it was extremely difficult to choose among the excellent videos and essays.  Thank you all for the pleasure of reviewing your entrees.
