The Arab Entrepreneurs Conclave
23rd – 24th February 2015, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
The Arab Entrepreneurs Conclave comes at a time of great reshaping, optimism and hope in the Arab World. Entrepreneurs, especially the youth, have found new avenues in leading innovation. Large-scale transformations in some countries, combined with social dynamism particularly among the youth, have clearly put the employment challenge on the top of the regional agenda, with entrepreneurship being a key imperative.
With nations already trying to diversify and evolve their economies, Arab Entrepreneurs have caught on to the need of the hour and have begun driving efforts towards innovation and entrepreneurship. Undoubtedly powering the bulk of the Arab economies in the post 2020 world would be their youth. With projections of 82 percent of the population slated to be below 40 by 2020, the role that Arab Entrepreneurs would have to play in this young and vibrant workforce should be examined now more than ever. While many Government interventions on the regulatory front are on and are thought to have benefited individual participants they have not had a tangible impact on the circumstances of the region’s Arab Entrepreneurs overall. On the cusp of this socio-economic transformation, MICE Quotient presents The Arab Entrepreneurs Conclave 2015.
The Arab Entrepreneurs Conclave will host speakers from across the region, and attract over 150 professionals, Arab Entrepreneurs, investors, Government authorities to connect and network under one roof. The Arab Entrepreneurs Conclave will have a specific and deep focus on the rise of innovation, tech driven entrepreneurial ventures and the challenges and lessons learned from Arab Entrepreneurs.
