The Global Entrepreneurship Festival slated for November 22-24 will take place at Entrepreneurship Village, Akure, Ondo State

Organisers revealed that the event will feature keynote speeches, interactive workshops, networking sessions, exhibitions, and startup showcases of creativity and innovation

The festival-themed “Beyond Boundaries: Poverty Eradication through Entrepreneurship” aims to drive critical conversations on entrepreneurship, innovation, and economic development, particularly in emerging markets like Africa.

The Festival’s head of international relations, Emmanuel Daniel, revealed that virtual tickets will be offered to allow participants across the globe to join the event online.
