About
In 2014 the Global Entrepreneurship Network (GEN) granted a license to Fundashon Negoshi Pikiña (FNP) to promote a Global Entrepreneurship Week every year on the Dutch Caribbean islands.
This year GEW is celebrated from 16 to 22 November, for the twelfth consecutive year on Curaçao and the eleventh consecutive year on Bonaire. The programme spans a full week, plus pre- and post-week activities, with presentations by successful international and local entrepreneurs, information sessions, keynote speeches, webinars, workshops, masterclasses, in-school events, a book review event and many opportunities to network and exchange business ideas.
The GEW Curaçao Board organises some of these activities. Others are organised and hosted by a growing number of partner organisations, a development GEW Curaçao welcomes.
We believe entrepreneurs can embrace who they are, can define their future, and can change the world.
