National Entrepreneurs’ Day is an American holiday held in November that celebrates the American men and women who promote entrepreneurship, business, innovation, and new jobs.
History[edit]
National Entrepreneurs’ Day was started in 2010[1] by David Hauser and Siamak Taghaddos, co-founders of Grasshopper, the entrepreneur’s phone system, and Amir Tehrani, entrepreneur and co-founder of The Legacy Foundation. The concept came to fruition after the group went to the White House to discuss Startup America and the Presidential Innovation Fellows, both government programs that support innovation and entrepreneurship. The Kauffman Foundation also supports this endeavor.[2]
Believing that entrepreneurs can fuel American progress and should be recognized each November, these leaders publicized the initiative and campaigned for the holiday by sending letters to Congress. They also created a video campaign called “Entrepreneurs Can Change the World.”
National Entrepreneurship Month[edit]
In 2012, President Barack Obama declared November of that year as National Entrepreneurship Month and to celebrate November 6, 2012 as National Entrepreneurs’ Day.[3] Supporters of National Entrepreneurs' Day are trying to make it an official US holiday that will fall on the third Tuesday of every Number through legislation.
Entrepreneurs are encouraged to thank mentors, give funding and advice, and spread the word on this day.[4] On October 31, 2017, President Donald Trump wikt:proclaimed November 2017 as National Entrepreneurship Month.[5][6]
