Dear NCCBA members and friends:
Fulfilling one of the pillars of the NC Chinese Business Association's mission
- "Assistance", this NCCBA event features two successful entrepreneurs
who will share their experiences with the necessary balance of technician,
manager, AND entrepreneur, as described in the book, E-Myth, by Michael Gerber.
In today's competitive and fast-paced environment, technical merit is not
enough. What does it really take? Be inspired by the expertise, business
savvy, personal vision and fortitude of our speakers:
Giles Shih, President and Co-Founder of BioResource International, a Triangle-based
global biotech enterprise that harnesses the natural powers of enzymes for
agricultural and industrial improvements. Dr. Shih has overseen business development
efforts since the company's inception in November 1999 and served as a consultant
for venture capital firms with investments in the biotechnology industry. Dr.
Shih was recognized with the Triangle Business Journal's "40 under 40:
Leadership Award.
James Zhou, VP for R&D at TechExcel, an international IT company that
develops and supports Application Lifecycle Management and CRM software. Mr.
Zhou is one of the rare individuals who can truly unite business processes,
product management techniques, and lead teams. Prior to joining TechExcel,
Zhou was lead software engineer for the Service Information Systems Division
of Caterpillar, Inc. and a senior software engineer at Synon, now Computer
Associates.
Moderator Cyndy Yu-Robinson will cover the principles of E-Myth, entrepreneurial
challenges and insights as a new business owner. Cyndy started in June to work
