The International Council for Small Business (ICSB) is pleased to announce two distinguished keynote speakers for the ICSB World Congress in Washington, DC: Herman Aguinis and Camille Burns. Their participation brings together world-class scholarship and real-world entrepreneurial leadership at one of the most important global gatherings for MSMEs.
Herman Aguinis, former AOM President, is internationally recognized for his groundbreaking work in management, leadership, and evidence-based decision-making. A prolific scholar and highly sought-after speaker, he has shaped how organizations think about performance, talent, and impact-making his insights especially relevant to policymakers, educators, and entrepreneurship researchers.
Camille Burns, CEO of the Women Presidents Organization (WPO), is a global advocate for women entrepreneurs and inclusive growth. Under her leadership, WPO has expanded its international reach, supporting women founders in scaling multimillion-dollar businesses through peer learning and community. Together, Aguinis and Burns reflect the spirit of the ICSB World Congress-connecting research, practice, and policy to advance entrepreneurship worldwide.
