We’re giving entrepreneurs a place to bring the questions they’re really wrestling with, because chances are, another business owner has faced similar dilemmas. If something I’ve learned along the way can help someone better navigate a challenge, make a tough decision or take their next step with more confidence, that’s incredibly meaningful to me.”</p><figure class="van-image-figure inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1920px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:66.72%;"><img id="ExkRASWA9K8rD3VtVGUH64" name="Lenovo BEB + Eva Longoria 5" alt="Eva Longoria for Lenovo's Call Eva program" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/ExkRASWA9K8rD3VtVGUH64.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1920" height="1281" attribution="" endorsement="" class="inline"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Lenovo)</span></figcaption></figure><p>“Technology can unlock enormous opportunities for small businesses, but technology alone doesn’t build a business.
