1. What is Global Entrepreneurship Week?
Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW) is the world’s largest celebration of entrepreneurship. GEW promotes
entrepreneurship through a network of individuals and organizations that aim to inspire, connect, and equip
entrepreneurs with the tools to bring ideas to life and drive economic growth. GEW 2010 had participation from
104 countries, and GEW 2011 held November 14-20 will be the first year Mongolia will participate in this global
movement. GEW Mongolia 2011 will include competitions, including Startup Weekend 3, special lectures and
talks, and networking gatherings, among other events.
How did GEW begin?
GEW began in 2008 launched by former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown and Carl Schramm, the president and
CEO of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation with 77 countries participating. Today, the event has grown and it
is expected that 2011 will see participation from more than 104 countries. GEW enjoys the endorsement of
political leaders all over the world, including President Barack Obama (US), Prime Minister David Cameron (UK),
President Anibal Cavaco Silva (Portugal), and numerous ministers throughout.
How is GEW funded?
GEW Mongolia 2011 is being hosted by SWMongolia, a Mongolian NGO also responsible for holding the successful
Startup Weekends in Mongolia. The primary sources of funding will be obtained from corporate sponsors and
revenue from admission tickets to some of our events. GEW Mongolia 2011 receives no government funds.
