The COVID-19 pandemic had a dramatic impact on global economy that shut down several businesses and also ironically saw the rise of a lot others. But perhaps the most significant impact of the pandemic on the business world is that it changed the way we work – facilitating remote working and forcing most local businesses to go online.
The Startups Without Borders 2020 summit themed “Brave New World” seeks to not just explore the new paradigm shift but to train young budding entrepreneurs to exploit it too.
The virtual summit, streamed LIVE from Amsterdam, Cairo, and San Francisco, would have workshops covering FinTech, e-commerce, and the future of remote work among others. These will be grouped into three tracks – The New Normal, Money Talks, and Brave Founders.
The New Normal Track will host a range of panels and talks to unveil the trends reshaping the way we work, buy, advertise, commute, exercise, seek entertainment – or even invest.
Hosting industry leaders and key figures in the startup and the investment landscape, the track will share key data and first-person perspectives from CEOs, strategists, marketers, and investors from Europe, the Middle East, and Silicon Valley, for entrepreneurs to understand the changing global landscape and tap into the myriad opportunities it can bring about.
At Upside Africa, we’re working to get as many African entrepreneurs as possible, to leverage the paradigm shift to build sustainable online businesses. We hope that in time, this would facilitate exponential growth, progress, and Pan-Africanism.
Join us at the Startups Without Borders Summit from your couch! Embark on an inspiring journey through the stories of some of the world’s most audacious entrepreneurs; those who built their businesses against all odds, those who innovated through a global pandemic, and those who failed and started all over again.
With industry leaders and key figures in the startup landscape, the summit will share key data and first-person perspectives from CEOs, strategists, and investors from Europe, the Middle East, and USA, for African entrepreneurs to understand the changing global landscape and tap into the opportunities it can bring about.
