Care organizations the need to save money and therefore keep peam out of the hospital and thats something were very focused on through our work. What is the biggest obstacle to the adoption of this stuff . When you think about the problems that you have scaling, what is the thing that sort of worries you the most . Well, i think as we build our Company Making sure we have the right people is what its all about. And as we get the right people we can make sure that the service we provide person by person is excellent. And we have an extremely long term mindset with respect to the opportunity to realize this mission. So what we care most about is literally person by person have we created a wonderful experience and pacing our growth around that. So people in excellence and service. I think we are actually out of time. I appreciate it very much. Thank you. [applause] its been say mazing. Ive been working with you to see how your Companies Save lives. The u. N. Has been open for business. The talk innovation, scale innovation. But my favorite is whats going on in emerging economies that are disrupting everything. Thats become a huge area for startups. Facebook announced 100 million users in africa. 50 of the population there. Everyone is trying to work on these initiatives. It seems theres a lot to be done. There is. But youre going to be working on something new. Today announcing that she is the new entrepreneur in residence at dell computer. Thats right. Cool. Thats awesome. Yeah. What the does that mean . Well let you know. Technology is the only force that is pozz 2i68 enabling and enhancing the human potential. So the United Nations and dell are not that far apart when it comes to understanding that if we dont advance technology, make it accessible for all everyone, that were not going to succeed. The second area is just all of these entrepreneurs we need 500 million jobs by 2020 for the eligiblework fors and theyre coming from entrepreneurs. 70 are coming from entrepreneurs. 90 in emerging companies. So well be pushing for the policies needed. It makes it why dell would want to have your help if theyre trying to bring their technologies to the world. Why did you pick dell . Well, we picked each other, ive got to be honest. We were really proud that michael dell became the first global advocate for entrepreneurship for United Nations foundation and we developed a relationship and just understood that if we dont work with entrepreneurs globally to give them capital, to help them Access Technology better talent, reduce regulations, that were not going to get the job creation that we need, were not going to get to the policies that we need. So i think we stood on Common Ground there pretty quickly. You talked a lot about Global Solutions. China creates these big fixes. That seems like a buzz word straight out of the enterprise world. But like what does that mean . Whats an example of a Global Solution . If all of you look at your phone, we have more phones than people by the end of the year. The mobile phone in my mind has been a Global Solution thats changing everything. If you look at how we use it now for Data Collection to reduce the disease, for example. With ebola happening theres no way without the technology that we have to track and compartment lies that and try to stop it. So it could also be something innovative. Theres some Great Companies out here that all of you have. And drones for example have such a bad name but were using them for disemination of vaccines and tracking refugees and a lot of very positive things in the world. So solution ks be profitable and save lives. Silicon valley is techy system kind of gets a bad rap about people making money to make themselves rich. What have you learned at your time that can help us to understand what we can do more to contribute . I know you worked with bill and Melinda Gates and theyve signed the giving pledge to give away most of their money in their lifetime. But what about the average tech worker . Well off but not super rich . Like the people in our audience, what can they do . What can we be expecting them to do to donate and volunteer and help . All of you can very quickly look at your triple bottom line. Its something i talk about a lot. That the day you start your company you can understand, yes, how its going to be profitable but also how does it impact the people on the planet . Most entrepreneurs are going to be a long time before they can write a check and thats ok but their technology might have an application that can save a life that can advance the work of a Community Around them whether its here in San Francisco or its in a refugee camp. And you would be surprised about all the solutions from unicef to the Refugee Agency that everyone is looking for that is just in these startup communities. So its not just about writing checks. Its about understanding how your technology can save lives. Theres got to be a todayoff where you indicate youre trying to make a difference or not. If youre a Bubble Company that means answering to Share Holders who constantly want more profit. And if youre assertive youve got to make the next milestones so people want to keep investing in you. How do you find that balance . I think that this generations entrepreneurs are looking at it from the day they open their business. So its part of their business plan. We understand that Consumers Want that of companies that theyre investing in that theyre looking at the world around them. The reason i was so attracted to dell is they were private theyre public, theyre private again. But theyve always maintained this commitment to entrepreneurship, to their sustainability their profitability, but most of all and this is whats important that theyve provided their Enterprise Level Solutions to companies whether they were with ten people or it was a multibillion dollar company. That type of thinking that we really need to support everyone for job creation, for the politics that we need, thats going to fuel all of these businesses to be successful. I really hope the investors step up and start to say were a social returns focus firm or this is something that matters to us. Its not just about our companies maximizing profit. We would like a lot of profit but more social good than just more profit. I would like to see more come forward and talk about that because i think youre going to have a better time recruiting Great Companies to become part of your portfolio if you are legitimately trying to make a better impact on the world. When it comes to dell, they do a lot of humanitarian efforts but theres a lot of talk about like when is it ok to make money saving a life . And how does dell work, how do they handle that . How do they decide what their margins are when its like do we make more money or save more lives . I hope for everyone on the debate can you be profitable and save lives actually dies. No pun intended, very soon. Because you can be a Profitable Company and look at the technology youre using with life saving applications. Multiple examples are liquid melding with data. When theyre looking at kids who have cancer and trying to make various tough lifesaving decisions. Dell uses their clout and data and everything in their analytics and shortens that Decision Making from years down to minutes. I dont dare if that is profitable if my little girls life is being saved. Most of the entrepreneurs, 90 or so in emerging and developing countries are actually solving problems with their profitable companies. Theyre going to be around a lot longer than charitable donations would allow them to be. So i think its fine to be profitable and save a life. Like common air funding more companies. One that is can make money in one part of the world and investing. I like some of the other companies that, for instance theres one that will educate families in ippedia about how to care for people that would normally need to be in a hospital but give them home medical care and they fund that by providing that service in the bay area and teaching families how to do that same care at home. And taking that money and being abling to give that service away for free. I think thats a great example. An eir that kind of sounds like a cushy job. You get to be a entrepreneur without having to have a startup to bust your butt upon. I feel like i have a lot of pressure. You really do. Im actually due this afternoon so weve got to wrap this up. No. Ill take that ok. No. Dell is an Incredible Company and the appreciate i feel is that michael dell and the whole company have made a huge commitment to entrepreneurs. That theyre providing technology but theyre also going to work on policy objectives that take this 8 00 to 10 00 8 out of 10 fail rate down and help create 500 million jobs through the entrepreneurs that they work with. Thats a lot of work to do. I dont think theres any cushion in that at all. But theyre committed to it, im committed to it. Were excited about it. If technology is a fabric that binds all of us i think this is a good company to work for. Im excited to have somebody whose heart is so aligned with helping the world and not just making money at one of the Biggest Companies in the world. So thank you for your commitment to that effort. And thanks again for make yourg announcement here. Thank you. Thank you everyone. In the president s weekly address Vice President joe biden encourages people to sign up for Health Insurance through the Affordable Care act. The current Enrollment Period ends on february 15. In the republican response representative rodney davis discussing the hire more heroes act and the partys priorities in the 114th congress. Hello, everyone. Theres one thing that you can do to make a difference in your health. Get Health Insurance through the Affordable Care act. Because of that law access to Quality Health care is improving. Last year almost 7 Million People signed up for Health Care Coverage under the new law and paid their premiums. In many cases the cost of health care is less than the cost of your cell phone or your cable bill. In addition, millions more are getting the care that they need through medicaid that they werent getting before. And because of the new law people who are already had Health Insurance are also benefiting from additional protections. For example, their Insurance Companies cant deny them coverage because of preexisting conditions like asthma or diabetes. And theyre able to get for free Preventative Services like mammograms or Blood Pressure screenings that their doctors ordered for them saving them a lot of money. Everyone is beginning to realize what millions of you already know. The Affordable Care act is working. And were just getting started. Because there are millions more who can get Quality Affordable Health Care if you sign up before february 15 of this year. Thats now through february 15. All you have to do is pick one. The best one that fits your familys Health Care Needs and your familys budget. If you dont want to go to health care. Gov and want to talk to somebody on the phone you can call 18003182596. From this moment on you can call any time of the day any day of the week. The phone lines are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. And for folks listening today whose family and friends may not speak english, let them know that there are translators available in over 150 ludges to languages to guide them through the process. If youre not comfortable going on line and you want to sit down with an individual to help you through this you can find out where to go as well. Because in every community a local libraries or Community Health centers people are there to help. All you have to do is go on health care. Gov, type in where you live and you can find out where to go to sit down with a person who will help you walk through the process. But heres the really important point i want to make. If you dont sign up by february 15th of this year with only a very few exceptions if you dont sign up by the 15th of this year youre going to have to wait until 2016 to get Health Insurance through the Affordable Care act. And even those of you who have already have Health Insurance through the Affordable Health care act you can also go on health care. Gov to find a plan that may offer more benefits or be more affordable in price for you. You might even qualify for additional help paying for the insurance you choose because your income isnt what it was last year. Now, im sure some of you already heard from your friends and neighbors who have signed up for Health Insurance under the Affordable Care act what i hear all around the country, i hear provides peace of mind, that someone you love will be cord if god forbid something happens. It provides security. So if you have a bad strain in your ankle or back and dont have the money to get treatment you can now get the treatment rather than wait put it off and end up with a chronic condition. It provides a lot of freedom in choice and opportunity so you can switch jobs or move to another city without the fear that you will lose out on the Health Insurance with a company you now have it with. What im hearing most is how pleased and excited people are about how affordable it is. An awful lot of people who didnt think they could or would find quality Health Insurance are able to get assistance from the government to help them pay for their Health Care Plans at a cheaper rate. A family of four with an income around 95,000 can still get a subsidy to lower their health care premiums. But maybe most importantly what i hear is that we have finally ended the debate in this country of whether or not Health Insurance is a right or a privilege. We think everyone in america has a right to have Adequate Health care insurance. And the Affordable Care act gives them that right. So sign up and spread the word. Protect your health. Not only for your sake but for the sake of your families. Thanks for listening. And jill and i wish you again a happy and healthy new year. Im honored to be speaking to you from speeled, the home of abraham lincoln. On tuesday we begin a new congress and that means a new start. If we Work Together we have a great opportunity to grow our economy and put our nation on solid footing for a bright future. Thats why the house will start off the jobs bills that have bipartisan support but were never considered by democraticrun senate. One of those initiatives is a bill i sponsored called the hire more heroes act. What this bill does is makes a common seps change to the president S Health Care law that will encourage Small Businesses to hire more of our nations veterans. You see, one problem with the health care law, one of many, is that because of its cost and mandates Small Businesses face higher costs and have to hold off on hiring. When Small Businesses the engine of our economy cant hire we cant move forward. Thats where the hire more heroes act comes in. This bill exements veterans already enrolled in Health Care Plans through the department of defense or the v. A. From being counted toward the employee limit under the president S Health Care law. So not only are we providing Small Businesses and our economy with muchneeded relief but also helping more of our veterans find work. Because despite receiving the best training in the world, post 9 11 veterans are consistently faced with higher unemployment rates than that of other veterans. As more and more of these men and women return home the hire more heroes act will give them a better chance in a still tough job market. The hire more heroes act is an example of the kind of bipartisan jobs bills the house will be bringing up on your behalf. In the coming days the house will also act on legislation to approve the keystone xl pipeline and to restore the 40hour workweek for middle class families. From there more good ideas will follow. If the president is willing to work with us well have a real chance to address our nations most pressing challenges. Theres one more thing i want you to know. This idea didnt come from washington. It came from right here in illinois. Brad la veeti the super attend president of the Veterans Convention came to me in seeing how unemployed veterans a were having a difficult time navigating the new health care
