Global Entrepreneurship Week 2024 

Rural Entrepreneurs Leading Inclusive Growth and Innovation

As Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW) 2024 embraces the theme of ‘Inclusive Growth and Innovation’, Rural Entrepreneurs (RE) celebrates its alignment with this mission through tangible achievements that empower rural communities. By championing entrepreneurship education, fostering innovation, and improving access to resources, RE ensures that no one, regardless of gender, geography, or background, is left behind in the pursuit of progress.

RE’s Impact: A Catalyst for Inclusive Growth

Our commitment to entrepreneurship is transforming rural areas into hubs of innovation and opportunities. Guided by our mission and vision, we’ve achieved remarkable milestones that reflect the essence of this year’s GEW theme:

Empowering Over 15,000 Individuals in Rural Areas:

Through targeted workshops and training, we’ve equipped rural youth, women, and vulnerable groups with the skills to start and scale businesses.

Establishing Innovation Labs and co-working spaces:

Our sustainable co-working spaces in rural areas are open to everyone, providing a collaborative environment where they can learn and turn their ideas into reality.

Improving Access to Resources:

By connecting rural startups to funding, networking opportunities, productive resources, and learning/training programs, we’ve helped them overcome barriers to success.

Building Partnerships within the Ecosystem:

Through mentoring local entrepreneurs and fostering partnerships, RE has cultivated a thriving environment where diverse voices drive growth and innovation.

GEW 2024: A Shared Vision

At the heart of Inclusive Growth and Innovation is the belief that entrepreneurial success should be for everyone. RE’s achievements resonate with this vision, proving that empowering rural entrepreneurs doesn’t just transform individuals—it strengthens communities, enhances resilience, and drives equitable economic progress.

This Global Entrepreneurship Week, we proudly highlight our role in empowering rural communities, driving innovation, and creating lasting opportunities for sustainable growth.
