Global Entrepreneurship Education Meeting (GEEM)

Connected by Purpose: Advancing Entrepreneurship Education through Global Collaboration

Reimagining Entrepreneurship Education for a Changing World

Entrepreneurship education must evolve to stay relevant and impactful in today’s rapidly shifting world—shaped by global crises, digital transformation, and changing workforce demands.

The Global Entrepreneurship Education Meeting (GEEM) 2025 is a pivotal platform for thought leaders, educators, researchers, and changemakers to reimagine how we teach, learn, and lead in this new era.

The Meeting will explore how innovation can transform pedagogy, curricula, and learning experiences to foster agility, creativity, and resilience. It will also highlight the power of collaboration across sectors, disciplines, and borders in building inclusive, future-ready entrepreneurial ecosystems.

From Conversation to Collective Action

GEEM 2025 is more than a gathering—it’s a global call to action. In a world marked by uncertainty and transformation, we believe entrepreneurship education (EE) must do more than inform—it must empower. GEEM 2025 invites educators, researchers, policymakers, and changemakers to co-create future-ready education models that equip learners to lead meaningful change in their communities and beyond. To make this vision a reality, GEEM is designed to actively engage key players in entrepreneurship education through three dynamic stages:

Exhibition

Participants will showcase their experiences during a full day of knowledge sharing aimed at learning, connecting, and creating new opportunities for collaboration to improve the education system through EE

Amplification

Participants will turn the opportunity for collaboration into action by engaging in dialogue with other stakeholders and working towards holistic, collaborative solutions.

Ripple Effect

Participants from all programs will come together to celebrate the achievement of EE implementation, showcase their accomplishments, and encourage others to participate.
