Hosted by Faris Alami, The Finjan Show spotlights Entrepreneurship, Globalization, Leadership, Culture and Community. We share insights from the amazing entrepreneurs and leaders that we work with globally, and guests who shedlight on what we call everyday entrepreneurs. While the world focuses on the millionaire and billionaire, most entrepreneurs and leaders are focused on solving a problem or providing opportunities to the communities in which they work. The Finjan Show shines a light on those that lead an organization that has a positive impact on the community, and those opening a corner store that may serve the community for 5,10, or 20 years. Without feeling it necessary to be RICH with cash, they are RICH in life!
