Insights from the G20 Young Entrepreneur Summit 2012

The G20 Young Entrepreneur Summit (G20 YES) is an international summit that brings together over 400 entrepreneurs aged 18 to 45 from each G20 member country. Delegates work collaboratively during the summit to finalize recommendations on promoting youth entrepreneurship, which are then forwarded to the G20 Heads of State during their summit. The G20 YES in Nice, France, attracted diverse participants who shared their insights and expertise in fostering innovative entrepreneurial ecosystems. For more information, visit the G20 YES official program and the McKinsey Report titled 'Power of the Many: Realizing the socioeconomic potential of entrepreneurs for the 21st century,' which offers a comparative analysis of entrepreneurship in the G20 countries. Additionally, check out the Ernst & Young Report, also known as 'The Nice 2011 Entrepreneurship Barometer,' for a comprehensive analysis of the entrepreneurial ecosystem across all G20 countries.
