What is Global Entrepreneurship Week?
Global Entrepreneurship Week—powered by the Kauffman Foundation—is the world’s largest celebration of the innovators and job creators who launch startups that bring ideas to life, drive economic growth, and expand human welfare. During one week each November, thousands of events and competitions around the world inspire millions to engage in entrepreneurial activity while connecting them to potential collaborators, mentors, and even investors.
Kansas City consistently has been among the leading cities for GEW events and this year looks to be bigger and better than ever! With more than 80 activities planned by local organizations throughout metropolitan Kansas City, there’s something for everyone. The wide variety of education, networking, and collaborative events give aspiring entrepreneurs and experienced business people an opportunity to share in the spirit of entrepreneurship in Kansas City.
