Happy About Announces Release of 'They Made It: How Chinese, French, German, Indian, Israeli and Other Foreign Born Entrepreneurs Contributed to High
Cupertino, CA (PRWEB) February 27, 2008 -- Happy About today announced the release of "They Made It!: How Chinese, French, German, Indian, Iranian, Israeli and other foreign born entrepreneurs contributed to high tech innovation in the Silicon Valley, the US and Overseas" (http://happyabout.info/ theymadeit.php). Great leaders have been the stuff of many business books over the years with authors often promising to deliver THE key ingredients that can guarantee the readers success in their own careers.
As author Angelika Blendstrup shows, there is no "secret sauce", but a number of "recipes for success" with specific ingredients that if applied, may smooth the path upward. These recipes are the result of conversations with foreign-born (as well as US) Silicon Valley/US entrepreneurs who tell it as it is. Each leader tells a unique, personal story of how s/he came to the US and ultimately made it.
If you plan to immigrate to the U.S. and establish yourself in Silicon Valley, or if you are just curious to find out what make these extraordinary individuals tick, you can listen to these foreign-born professionals and gain personal insight into the fulfillment of their ambitions and dreams.
"Immigrants from Andy Grove, to Vinod Khosla, to Sergey Brin have made Silicon Valley the extraordinary success it is today. This book provides valuable lessons learned from the successful entrepreneurs that will prove inspiring to people from every country."
Steve Westly, Founder and CEO, The Westly Group, Former California State Controller
The book is available from Amazon.com at http://amazon.com/o/ASIN/1600050751/ and Happy About at http://happyabout.info/theymadeit.php

French Rock is Alive and it Lives in Paris
Like many other European countries outside of the UK, France has always struggled with it?s own musical identity. In the second half of the 20th century, the music scene in France ended up mimicking the sounds of popular American and British artists. Starting in the 1980?s, France saw an influx of new and distinctive rock bands like Telephone and later Pigalle that carved out the path for a new breed of artists that were uniquely French in attitude and sound. During the explosion of "French Touch" in the early 1990s, electro and house artists like Daft Punk and Air invaded the world's dance floors, bringing attention to the overlooked Country.
