Think Like An Entrepreneur with Aaron Bell, the  youngest engineer ever hired by Microsoft and now CEO of Adroll
Friday November 15,  4:00pm, connect at http://www.collegefeed.com/networking
Join GECD and Collegefeed in an online networking event with Aaron Bell the youngest engineer ever hired by Microsoft and now the CEO of Adroll. Topics we will discuss include Aaron’s early career motivations, decisions he made and why, what it was like to found the first “social network” in college in 1999 and fail, what made his recent company succeed and 5 things he wish he knew in college. Aaron will likely also pose a "challenge" to the audience during his session where the "prize" could be a meeting with him / Adroll.
