From Bungees to Boardrooms – Reinventing How Business is Played with Maverick Entrepreneurs...

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb. 5, 2010 - Maverick Business Adventures Announces Upcoming April 8-12 Outing: Costa Rica “Extreme” for Successful Entrepreneurs and SEO’s Who Like to Play Hard, Make Connections and Pay It Forward


Here’s a new twist on how to succeed in business and in life from Maverick Business Adventures (http://www.maverickbusinessadventures.com/). Leap into bungee jumping, rappel a waterfall and paddle an extreme class V river, then dive into high-energy business sessions where true epiphanies can happen.

“These are all escapes from the same-old, same-old that can dull that original cutting edge of successful entrepreneurs and CEOs,” said Yanik Silver, founder of Maverick Business Adventures® (MBA) that is organizing Costa Rica “Extreme” April 8-12, 2010 http://www.maverickbusinessadventures.com/CostaRica/.

For a trip fee of $11,995/pp you will receive private transportation and exclusive services from arrival to departure, single room accommodations in luxury digs, healthy meals, most beverages, all specialized equipment needed, daily activities, professional guides, expert training and the benefits of big-league connections and deal making.

The adventure begins by mountain bike through primary rainforest to the remote class V section of the wild Pacuare River (the site of the 2010 International Rafting Federation’s World Rafting Championship). The final exclamation point on the adventure is bungee jumping from a bridge 252 feet above a cascading river gorge.

Between the adrenalin highs, MBA’s entrepreneurial guests explore the common – and not so – concerns of their respective businesses, a problem-solving technique that allows such diverse fields as real estate and high tech to interface.

Says Silver: “Because you’re here with other like-minded, big-dreaming, forward-thinking entrepreneurs and business people, you feel a kinship and a shared spirit and have no trouble at all finding new ideas or that much-needed business partner.”

A staple of all MBA programs is the appearance of, among others, an industry titan, pop culture icon or best-selling author who shares personal anecdotes of life at the top and what it takes to get there. Previous business celebrities have included Sir Richard Branson, Tony Hawk and Jesse James.

A third MBA element is a session with young entrepreneurs (http://maverickbusinessadventures.com/young-entrepreneurs...) from the region where the adventures are conducted.

“It’s this unique ‘giving forward’ aspect that many members love the most. The benefits from impacting just one student are immeasurable,” says Silver.

He believes in “paying it forward” to inspire, teach and financially support young entrepreneurs. “It is the creative thinker, the risk taker, the dreamer… the young entrepreneur who will lead this world into the new economy and renewed age of prosperity,” says Silver. “One of my real passions is helping young people and turning on the lights for them to see a different direction in their life.”

MBA is the first and thus far the only membership (http://maverickbusinessadventures.com/qualificationdetails.html) to gather successful, like-minded entrepreneurs and top achievers for adrenalin highs and creating new partnerships and connections while sharing business challenges and case studies. Core to the MBA mission is to inspire and empower future entrepreneurs. MBA has set a goal to positively impact one million young and aspiring entrepreneurs ages 13-25 by the year 2020 through live and online learning, incubators, start-up funding and mentorship.

MBA founder Yanik Silver (http://maverickbusinessadventures.com/about.html) believes that getting outside the office and tackling new challenges provides the right fuel for innovative, breakthrough thinking. A self-described “adventure junkie,” maverick internet entrepreneur and self-made millionaire, Silver has found that his own life-changing experiences such as running with the bulls, bungee jumping and high altitude sky diving have brought a profound sense of accomplishment and led to clarity in ideas and focus. This inspired him to create Maverick Business Adventures® for like-minded entrepreneurs, CEOs and business owners.  

Redefining the way business is played, Maverick Business Adventures® is structured to be an exclusive group and membership is by-application-only, limited to forward thinking business men and women with proven abilities and success. Silver stresses that the focus is not on corporate team building or motivational development. Instead, members will be invited to join all-inclusive adventure outings that encourage the type of high-level networking and powerful connections that can only occur outside of normal business settings. For details on the group and how to apply for membership you can go online to http://www.maverickbusinessadventures.com/ or call 240.744.0165.
