VANCOUVER — It was all so exciting and strange. Clint Hames, Mayor of Chilliwack, B.C., flew to Brazil with local officials for something called the 10th World Summit of Young Entrepreneurs.
A trim and suave Bangladeshi-Canadian named Sujit Chowdhury organized the March, 2006, event. He selected the guests.
Mayor Hames was not a young entrepreneur, nor was he accustomed to receiving accolades while abroad. But he cheerfully accepted a bulky, etched-glass trophy in Sao Paulo. It was recognition for his help in establishing a new university back home.
