Description

Innovation is key for successful entrepreneurship, especially in an international market. These days even more since the pandemic and geopolitical challenges affect in many ways global business. Disruption of chain production, increased prices and shortages of raw materials, transportation availability and costs, pre-pandemic fixed terms and conditions are substantial hurdles for business to be conducted without serious legal exposures. So companies need to be guided through these problem areas while there is also increasing demand for having a stronger focus on the environment. Not only does private enterprise recognise this, but innovation is also strongly supported by governments that are trying to create the best ecosystems for the development of innovation in their countries or territories. The Netherlands, especially the city of Amsterdam, are a perfect example of this. 

A panel of experts in the area of developing and promoting innovation will share their views on the necessary ingredients for successful innovation in international entrepreneurship. 

Join our panellists in discussing and debating the session’s topics from a variety of angles.
