What is Entrepreneurship?
Entrepreneurship is a concept used to describe the capacity and willingness to create, organize, and run a business company, including all of its uncertainties, in order to profit. The most visible manifestation of entrepreneurship is the establishment of new firms. Entrepreneurship using land, labour, natural resources, and capital can yield a profit in economics. The entrepreneurial vision is defined by exploration and risk-taking, and it is an essential component of a country’s ability to flourish in an ever-changing and increasingly competitive global marketplace.
and GEN is?
General Entrepreneurial Network (GEN) is a platform that connects founders, investors, policymakers, and ecosystem builders, promoting entrepreneurship and democratizing opportunities. It connects entrepreneurs with opportunities, matches investors with up-and-coming founders, shares policies for governments, and brings researchers together to benchmark and share entrepreneurship data.
Entrepreneurship can thrive anywhere. We’ve seen it happen, and it’s powerful. To amplify this, Global Entrepreneurship Week is back with a new theme for 2023: Entrepreneurs Thrive Here. This campaign is designed to share stories and events of entrepreneurship around the world, from rural farming communities and regional industry hubs to smart cities, cultural capitals, and seats of government. It will celebrate the entrepreneurs who have built our communities, those who are defining our future, and those who are taking risks and testing new ideas along the way. It will amplify entrepreneurial culture and open doors to those who have yet to experience its magic.
The Global Entrepreneurship Network (GEN) aims to help everyone succeed and contribute to the world’s greatest challenges. To join this network, you can sign up via this link: https://www.genglobal.org/join.
