This is called clean technology, and it was really meaningful to me. It could help reduce billions of pounds of single-use plastic packaging wasted each year.

But what I really long for is to find other first-time entrepreneurs(企业家)who are my age. I want to connect with them. So I want to do something about that in a few years. I want us to start talking more about people who don’t become entrepreneurs until they are seniors. And then connecting all of them across industries, regions and countries—building a community. 1、What happened to the author nine years ago? A．He retired from his former company.
