During the presentation, Viscogliosi talked about how to be an entrepreneur, and what that means. He talked about taking risks, the requirement of grittiness and how as an entrepreneur in the business world getting the answer “no” means “yes, with conditions.” 

“The best thing for us to hold onto is what we believe.” said Chappell; truly words to live by.
