Kacey Carpenter: Happy New Year! We had a wonderful holiday with everyone home for the holidays. I have been very busy the past year running for Mountain View City Council and California Democratic Party Delegate. The City Council race was competitive with many incumbents including 3 former Mayors and though I did not win gained enough name recognition to be elected as a CADEM delegate. http://tinyurl.com/grassroots24

Looking to focus on a fund – supporting circular economy startups… www.globelet.com is the first company… PLEASE COME VISIT ME IN NEW ZEALAND…

Patrick Yves Durand-Smet: I still in Versailles, France after so many years. Happily remaried two years ago. I took the French curtain rod leader out of bankruptcy in March 2016, and currently running it, giving it a new future after a strong restructuring period. If any one stops by Paris or Versailles, let me know and get together.

 

 

Sondra Baron: It was so great to see so many old friends in Philadelphia! I would love to keep in touch and not wait another 25 years. After 13 years in London – with many of you, just after Wharton – I moved back to the States in 2004. I live just outside of Boulder with my husband and 11 year old son, and I am the CFO of the nonprofit investment fund Capital Sisters International. We make loans to microfinance organizations that remain true to their mission of providing capital to entrepreneurial women at the bottom of the pyramid. In these times of turmoil our socially minded efforts are more important than ever!
