Bluedrop Performance Learning’s (TSX-V: BPL) President and CEO, Emad Rizkalla, was in attendance to see President Bill Clinton showcase the DreamBuilder project in the Opening Plenary of the Clinton Global Initiative Annual Meeting being held in New York City this week. Bluedrop is a member of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) and a team member of the DreamBuilder project team.

The DreamBuilder project was selected as one of only six projects, from all over the world that was showcased in the opening plenary on the main stage. It was recognized in front of world leaders, multinational CEOs, international media and celebrities. Tracy Bame, President of the Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Foundation was on stage to acknowledge their commitment. Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold has invested several million dollars in helping disadvantaged women reach their potential.

Emad Rizkalla, President and CEO of Bluedrop said of the announcement, “Sometimes we forget how the work we do helps women and small business owners to get ahead or enables nurses to improve their patient care or even helps improve safety for personnel flying on military aircraft. This week, the profound significance of our work came crashing home when I heard the news about our DreamBuilder project with Thunderbird School of Global Management of Phoenix.”

The other speakers at the opening plenary with President Clinton were: Michael T. Duke, President and CEO, Wal-Mart Stores Inc.; Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan; Ban Ki-Moon, Secretary-General, United Nations; and Jim Yong Kim, President, World Bank.

In late 2011, Bluedrop entered into a partnership with Thunderbird School of Global Management to host the service on the CoursePark Campus platform and to build courseware for women living in rural areas of Chile and Peru. DreamBuilder will provide business skills training to help marginalized women in these countries to start or grow small businesses and entrepreneurship skills.
