Everywhere I go across America and around the world, I hear from people – especially young people – who are ready to start something of their own, to lift up people’s lives and shape their own destinies,” President Barack Obama said.

“That’s entrepreneurship – that spark of prosperity that creates new jobs and new businesses, new ways to deliver basic services, and new ways of seeing the world.”

All entrepreneur delegates, including the Youth and Women event, will be selected from the same applicant pool. The online application form for Investor delegates will be available via the website – www.GES2016.org

This will be the 7th installment in the series, which in addition to the U.S. has been hosted by Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, Morocco, and Kenya.
