With the U.S. Census Bureau citing a 24% increase in in new business applications over last year, which was already a 95 percent increase compared to 2019, entrepreneurs are driving growth across industries and uncovering new opportunities globally.

“This year has seen a continued acceleration in new business opportunities,” said Anderson. “I am honored and committed to helping EO members and the entrepreneurial community around the world build sustainable success over time. I have personally experienced the power of the Entrepreneurs’ network in transforming my businesses while sharpening my executive approach. As Chair, I have two main goals. First, supporting entrepreneurs in a resilient COVID-19 recovery applying learnings from members around the world. Second, EO is considered a ‘best-kept secret’ in the entrepreneur community – I want to make sure all business founders know about the support EO offers and the resulting success of our collaborative approach.”

Prior to his entrepreneurial career, Anderson worked for the White House serving two United States Presidents, a United States Congressman, and served as a senior staff member on two presidential-appointed commissions.
As a lifelong entrepreneur, Anderson is eager to share what he has learned. “My leadership path has taken me from the President of my college fraternity to the White House. Along the way, I have experienced success and failure, and I am focused on building businesses and sharing my expertise to help others to grow, innovate and thrive.”
