SUMMARY:GES | Hague Talks - How to connect business to the global good?
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, only bold social entrepreneurs\, innovators\, and philanthropists dared to think big to improve the world through their businesses. Nowadays\, a wider group of corporate stakeholders focus their core business on creating a positive impact on society. As these two worlds come together\, unique partnerships are developing across industries and types of organizations: tapping into technology\, innovation and entrepreneurship to tackle some of society’s most pressing problems. \nParticipation by the private sector is seen as crucial to addressing global challenges – calling for new solutions aimed at eradicating poverty and hunger\, fostering safe and inclusive societies\, and combating climate change. \nWould you like to get an inside track on some of this new entrepreneurship approach? Engage with innovators from the Global Entrepreneurship Summit?  Are you curious to understand The Hague’s role as an ecosystem for innovators focusing on a better\, safer and more just world?  Please join a special edition of ‘Hague Talks’ here at GES where inspiring entrepreneurs share their stories and ideas. \nSpeakers will be announced shortly. \nThis event is in cooperation with a numbers of partners\, including RVO\, The Hague Business Agency\, and the Humanity Hub. \nRegistrations: https://www.haguetalks.com/event/global-good/
