WHAT WILL BE DISCUSSED
Entrepreneurship Policy post COVID
Entrepreneurial activity is an important pillar of economic growth, driving job and value creation and stimulating innovation. Entrepreneurs, investors, and governments have reacted to the pandemic differently and with varying degrees of effectiveness; few markets and sectors flourished while others suffered tremendously. This webinar will discuss the challenges of designing and implementing entrepreneurship policy post pandemic. Some of the questions to be addressed: Have there been structural changes in the entrepreneurial landscape due to the pandemic? What are the observations from developed and emerging economies? What is the [changing] role of public policy in supporting entrepreneurial ecosystem development? What has been the experience in supporting scale up entrepreneurship in emerging market entrepreneurship ecosystems, South Korea and globally? The presenters will share views and observations about key policy issues and responses from different markets with an attempt to draw lessons for emerging economies.
