    The focus of this conference is on the role of entrepreneurship and innovation in advancing the sustainable development goals of a society. Today, more than ever, the role of small and medium enterprises are transforming from just making profit to becoming leaders in their community. They are aligning their core business, as well as philanthropy, advocacy and partnerships, to support society in ways to solve social issues.

     

    Entrepreneurship through small and medium enterprises has a very important role to play. We invite NGOs, scholars, social entrepreneurs, policy makers and more, to present empirical and theoretical research and discuss current issues to help shape future priorities. With a better understanding of the programs and opportunities for entrepreneurs, governments around the world can experience transformational change.
