Aging entrepreneurs always have experience on their side. Such a group composes Ai3inc, (www.asitisinc.com) an artificial intelligence company that launched its new web site www.truethinker.com. The technology, based on that used as long ago as the 50’s now has a new usage, assisting with organizing, saving and sharing internet links for work or play. And there is a social networking component, the ability to share those links, either publicly or privately.

 

Older entrepreneurs are nothing new, however. From Jim Hopkins’ Small Business Connection Blog, America has never been lacking older entrepreneurs. Jim writes, “Self-employment rates have traditionally been higher among older workers who launch start-ups after leaving big companies through early retirement or layoff. That's what researchers found in a trend I wrote about here.”

He cites a study, The Effect of Aging on Entrepreneurial Behavior, was published in the Journal of Business Venturing.

Kudos to the Ai3inc team who has some global betterment issues also on their agenda.
