Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative

FEBRUARY 8, 2021

As entrepreneurs, it is natural to feel fear or uncertainty about what will happen to our projects, and I think that is a common denominator for many of us. The post One social entrepreneur and activist’s mission to defend the environment and indigenous communities in Venezuela appeared first on Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative.

We asked EO members to look ahead in 2023 and identify trends they see for entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship overall. We asked them to share the skills, mindset or tools that entrepreneurs would be wise to adopt to meet the moment. Being flexible and adaptable will be key for entrepreneurs entering this climate.

In all corners of the world, entrepreneurs are playing an integral role in the development of communities, economies and industries. My dad, who was a successful entrepreneur, taught me the value of hard work and that experience is the best MBA you can get. It also helped shape my business vision and mission as an entrepreneur.

TechCrunch

OCTOBER 22, 2020

European entrepreneurs who want to launch startups could do worse than Switzerland. I really wish that the business case for social and ecological startups will finally be proven (kind of like Oatly showed with the Blackstone investment). Are there startups that you wish you would see in the industry but don’t? is incredible.
