A win-win situation is defined as a mutually beneficial event. Entrepreneurship, as applied to solving the challenges that are defined by economic development metrics, presents such an opportunity. In attendance, will be Washington, D.C. officials who will welcome speakers and participants. Mr. Joseph Jye-Cherng Lyu, Chairman of Taiwan Financial Holdings, will share his views on entrepreneurship, capital access, and government policy, as the leader of the Bank of Taiwan. The 9th Annual Policy conference will address the topic of “Entrepreneurship Policy and the Role of the State.” Government officials from the US Department of Labor (DOL), SBA, and the United Nations’ Division of Sustainable Development and Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) will share how each organization works with SME formation and support via policies at the national and international level.
Capital is the lifeblood of any business or organization. The Finance and Access to Capital Markets will give notable executive leaders at banking institutions and financial holdings organizations the opportunity to share best practices when working with small businesses. This is a must see panel because the implementation of banking regulation, as understood by the executive leadership, is important to solve the access to capital hurdle. Wrapping up the day, the audience will be treated to a discussion around “The Shifting Sands in Global Economic Power.” The internet age and technology have given access to knowledge to entrepreneurs and small business owners globally. By filling long existing economic knowledge gaps, more and more regions around the world are finally taking their place in global opportunities.
Entrepreneurship can be defined as the combination of creativity and Innovation, with creativity equating to thinking new things, while Innovation is about doing new things. Let the winning continue.
