🌍 2nd Edition of Venture Week: Entrepreneurship Conference in Lusophone Africa 🌍

It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the 2nd edition of Venture Week, which will once again feature the Lusophone Africa Entrepreneurship Conference. This year, the event will be centred on the theme ‘What is most urgent to do?’, a unique opportunity to bring together entrepreneurs, academics and leaders from various fields to discuss the challenges and opportunities in the region.

The conference aims to explore the main needs and critical areas that require immediate action, as well as presenting innovative solutions to promote sustainable and inclusive growth in Lusophone Africa.

With diverse socio-economic and cultural realities, it is crucial to understand what needs to be done to strengthen the entrepreneurial ecosystem and create an environment conducive to innovation.
