STARTUP CHAMPIONS FROM AROUND THE WORLD WILL MEET IN ISTANBUL
The GEC brings together thousands of delegates from 170 countries to discuss economic and policy challenges around growing entrepreneurial ecosystems. With live events featuring the latest, best-in-class programming and research, GEC is a unique opportunity to meet fellow practitioners and stay apprised of new ideas, insights and developments. This annual event – hosted by a new entrepreneurial city each spring - is designed so that delegates return home with fresh ideas, tools and connections to leverage in their pursuit of forward-leaning entrepreneurship support efforts.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the next GEC will be host in Istanbul on April 16-19, 2018.
This milestone event aims to raise the bar of the congress to position it as the “Davos of Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Builders” for the next decade. The congress will feature numerous parallel tracks and networking platforms for sharing and inspiration, learning and exploration and aligning and reflection.
