When entrepreneur and Inc. 30 Under 30 alum Nikhil Arora received an email from the White House last Thursday to attend a small business meeting, he didn’t know exactly what to expect or even who from the Obama administration would be present.
He said it was only “one or two days” before the now highly publicized meeting took place Tuesday that he found out President Obama himself would lead a conversation on how to avoid the impending fiscal cliff with a group of 15 entrepreneurs.
“I didn’t expect that level of engagement from the administration,” said the co-founder of Back to the Roots, a company that makes mushroom growing kits from recycled coffee grounds. “This was not a presentation, it was an active back-and-forth discussion.”
