THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
THE EO GRIT PROGRAM
Led by EO GRIT Founder Ami Kassar

At the core of the retreat is the EO GRIT experience — immersive entrepreneurial learning designed to challenge perspectives, build resilience, strengthen leadership, and help founders navigate what’s next.

These are not passive presentations.
They are highly interactive, founder-driven experiences focused on real-world challenges, honest conversations, and actionable insights.

SESSION 01 — BUILD WHAT’S NEXT WITH BARRETT ERSEK

An exclusive conversation with EO’s longest-serving Global Chair, serial entrepreneur, and Holganix founder Barrett Ersek.
Barrett shares hard-earned lessons on scaling, persistence, leadership under pressure, navigating uncertainty, and building businesses with lasting impact.
Expect candid stories, practical wisdom, and meaningful dialogue.

SESSION 02 — THE EO GRIT WORKSHOPS (3 TRACKS)

A powerful multi-track entrepreneurial learning experience designed around the real needs of the room.

Using insights generated during Day One’s GRIT Marketplace Session, participants will engage in focused breakout tracks covering scaling challenges, leadership roadblocks, operational growth, mindset shifts, and strategic problem-solving.

These sessions combine:
Founder mastermind discussions
Collaborative learning
Peer problem-solving
Tactical insights
Honest entrepreneurial conversations

This is EO learning at its best: real, vulnerable, practical, and transformational.

SESSION 03 — ROBOTICS & YOUR DIGITAL FUTURE

An unforgettable private breakfast and live demonstration with Asylon Robotics.

Experience the future firsthand through advanced drone technology and autonomous “DroneDog” robotics that are reshaping security, automation, and operational efficiency across industries.
