Berkeley, (the fictional) Simone Samuels has all the skills to be an entrepreneur. The tech job market was white hot in her local community, the San Francisco Bay Area, but she just wasn't ready to jump into the grind. She wanted to build a computer lab for a local public senior citizens complex but she worried about her resume and about the money for the lab.
Within 1 week, Simone received the 100 Facebook Likes required as part of the validation for her GEM Mission. This quick validation caught the eyes of the official GEM Curators and she soon received the 3 official Curator endorsements she needed for her Certificate and to release the funds for her project when her fundraising is complete. So far she needs to raise just $245 to complete her fundraising.
