🌍 | Entrepreneurial skills like creativity, problem-solving, and community leadership are key to driving social innovation, cohesion, and job creation. Entrepreneurial thinking empowers people from all walks of life to have agency in their daily lives, fosters multi-stakeholder engagement and partnerships, and teaches people to think outside the box to solve problems and reduce red tape. This was one of the key outcomes of our session on Entrepreneurial Skills Driving Innovation and Inclusion held during the European Week of Regions and Cities. Partners SHINE 2Europe, Friends of Europe, Eurochambres, AFEdemy, age-friendly environments academy and i2CAT along with participants brainstormed ways to incorporate entrepreneurial thinking to tackle some of the key problems society faces today from how to build a more sustainable, inclusive and just future to what is needed for societal actors to work together.

One of the distinctive elements of The Abundance Summit hosted by Boston New Technology (BNT), Arielle for Africa LTD, and Prepare 4 VC will be our lightning talks, with the first one starring one of the greatest entrepreneurs I've ever worked with --- Alisha Overton, Founder and CEO of The AO Planner Company. Alisha's is a tale of two cities -- Chicago and Boston, and in the case of the latter it's a classic story of a mutual embrace. Alisha's grit, cleverness, and drive are all valuable traits to learn from. Come to The Abundance Summit and learn about what she's come up with, how she got to where she's at and what you can do to venture forward.
