GEW Germany Changing Mindset around Social Entrepreneurship
15th October, 2018 – #GEW2018 is now a month away, so here’s a look at what countries around the world are doing to celebrate their local startups and entrepreneurship in their communities.
For Germany, the country has been celebrating Global Entrepreneurship Week since its inception in 2008. Known as “Gründerwoche Deutschland,” GEW Germany has grown from about 12,000 participants and 120 events in 2008, to nearly 100,000 participants and 2,000 events in 2018.
Now, the Global Entrepreneurship Network in Germany is using the expansive network that the GEW celebrations in the country has developed over the past 10 years to change the mindset and perceptions around social entrepreneurship. The hope is that this year’s GEW will help address some of the challenges social entrepreneurs, in particular, face in Germany.
