Global Entrepreneurship Congress

About

The Global Entrepreneurship Congress (GEC) is the only place where founders at all stages of development and policymakers, investors and support organizations from all economies are in the same room, collaborating to bring ideas to life, driving economic growth and expanding human welfare.

Young entrepreneurs often face disproportionate risks due to limited experience, assets, and networks. At the same time, they are perceived as high-risk by investors and financial institutions, making it harder to access the funding and support they need to succeed. To unlock their potential, the focus must shift toward market-driven solutions that leverage private sector mechanisms, financial innovations, and entrepreneurial support structures to mitigate these risks and create a more resilient entrepreneurial ecosystem.
