What is a Global Entrepreneurship Week Ambassador?

Ambassadors are high-profile, entrepreneurial individuals who share the ideals of Global Entrepreneurship Week. They have global reach and are plugged into networks in all corners of the world. They come from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds, with a wide range of experience and skills, but they all share one thing: a belief that young people's creative ideas can help address society's greatest issues.

What does a Global Entrepreneurship Week Ambassador do?

Global Ambassadors help make Global Entrepreneurship Week a success. They promote the initiative to their contacts, on their blogs and during their meetings. They take part in events and activities organized by others, and they run events and activities in their own organizations and networks. Anyone who fits the profile can apply to be an Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship Week - all you need is commitment and passion.
