How Garrett Melby Says We Can All Help Entrepreneurs Succeed

Although Garrett Melby felt like a guest at SustainPHL 2016, his GodoCompany Ventures received the Business Innovation of the Year award.

GoodCompany Ventures has graduated over 70 entrepreneurs through its mission. However, they’ll be able to solve future problems of climate change – with a little of our help. Watch his full speech to find out what we can do, too.

Don’t miss the Usain Bolt celebration at the end, either.
