Summit To Focus On Young Entrepreneurs

In four weeks the G20 Young Entrepreneur Summit will be bringing together various entrepreneurs, academics, government officials and youth entrepreneurship organizations to help promote global youth entrepreneurship.

The Summit, taking place in Toronto, Canada June 20-22, 2010, will assemble delegations from the G20 nations to identify and examine the issues impeding young entrepreneurs around the world. The discussions will result in the development of a communiqué identifying shared key policy issues and approaches. This information will be presented to the G20 Leaders to help them to maximize the economic potential of young entrepreneurs in their respective economies.

“Young entrepreneurs are an essential element in global economic growth,” says Vivian Prokop, chief executive officer of CYBF. “By working together with other like-minded organizations from around the world, CYBF is contributing to the global discussion surrounding the challenges facing youth entrepreneurship, as well as the policies needed to support innovative young business owners.”
