Global Entrepreneur Week (GEW) is from November 16th-22nd. The movement is a collaborative effort between countries across six continents to encourage young adults to pursue careers as entrepreneurs. I am very excited about this movement. There is no better time like the present to grow and harness our ideas. Entrepreneurship is the cornerstone of our economy in the United States and many other countries. Additionally entrepreneurship teaches young adults to be creative and to come up with ways to improve their community.
Throughout the week of November 16th, countries across the globe will host various events on line or in person to celebrate and encourage entrepreneurship. Global Entrepreneurship week has four main goals: to inspire, connect, mentor, and engage. Let’s get started today by encouraging our youth to think big and to serve and improve their communities. In the United States schools children have the opportunity to think like entrepreneurs through programs such as Junior Achievement, DECA, or Future Business Leaders of America. Let’s continue to encourage our youth’s continued participation in these activities. If you are an entrepreneurial parent, speak to your children about why you went into business. Encourage your children to think outside the box and go into business for themselves. For more information on Global Entrepreneurship Week visit: www.unleashingideas.org.
