Jim Jameson: Capitalist-at-Large

Talking his way into a Hughes Helicopter business in Indonesia just after graduating from Stanford, Jim Jameson's career as a global business man seemed evident early on. 120 countries later, after meeting dozens of heads of state, and identifying and backing countless entrepreneurs worldwide, our guest owns a myriad of companies in diverse industries: Publishing in Poland; Agriculture in the Middle East; Motion Pictures in Vietnam; Aerospace in Los Angeles; E-commerce in China; he even has 25 employees in the Ukraine... But this sophisticated thinker does not only ponder commerce. On this edition of the Up2 podcast we also discuss how Jim works to see the best in people, even his classmate convicted of murder, and why he continues to visit a French monastery annually to retreat silently to explore life's biggest questions.
