From Enterprise to Impact: Entrepreneurship, Growth and National Development

Drawing on the experiences of entrepreneurs from the second cohort of the Commonwealth Startup Fellowship, this panel will reflect on the role of entrepreneurship in driving growth and sustainable development across the Commonwealth. 

The discussion will look at the role of entrepreneurship as a vehicle for social impact, both as a source of inclusive growth as well as a means of addressing difficult problems in areas such as health, education and climate.  

Now at the end of their fellowship, Fellows will reflect on their entrepreneurial journey so far, how entrepreneurship has empowered them to address complex problems and their vision of the future.
