I am very happy to announce that the Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW) España will take place around the globe in the week of the 17th to the 23rd of November 2008. The founders of GEW are the “Make your Mark” and the “Kaufmann” Foundation. One of the prominent promoters of the week in Europe is the British Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
End of last year I helped the GEW to be introduced to Spain. The initial contact was made through EO (Entrepreneurs’ Organization) and the first meetings were hosted and managed by IESE Business School. Besides EO and IESE important entrepreneurial organisations and institutions are already represented such as, First Tuesday, Barcelona Activa, ACC1Ó CIDEM | COPCA, Active Capital Partners, Eurecan, Training Games Ltd., Caixa Capital Risc, EOI Escuela de Negocios, Intereconomía, Junior Achievement España, Sistema madri+d and Madrid Emprende. Every partner is committed to joining forces in order to organize events, conferences, learning forums and special sessions during the Global Entrepreneurship Week. Everybody has a common goal: To foster entrepreneurship!

Thank you for this post supporting Global Entrepreneurship Week. I hope it will inspire young entrepreneurs to pick up the challenge and get an idea moving forward.
Over the past month, I have been looking for ways to bring attention to Global Entrepreneurship Week, which is an effort to promote entrepreneurship as a career for young people in more than 60 countries around the world. I have been collecting the best of posts on entrepreneurship that I can find and consolidating them through links on a web directory.
I hope this event will bring a focus that will create millions more young people who take on the challenge of changing the world.
