There is a lot of information on the internet, many books, and studies that are confusing and unclear. Starting a business and keeping it afloat is challenging. Unfortunately, there is no rulebook to follow to ride out the storm and steer the ship. Every business is different, and each carries its own risks, opportunities, and rewards.

For that reason, with our initiative, we wish to provide you with valuable information that will help you navigate your entrepreneurial journey. We believe the best way to obtain accurate information backed up with real-life knowledge and experience is to go directly to the source.

So, whether you are just starting your business or you already have a business and are still trying to figure your way through it, make sure to look at the Brochure – Vol. 1 (PDF). In section 3, you will find advice that Founders, CEOs, and Best-In-Class Leaders worldwide would give their younger selves if they started their journey again with all the knowledge they have today.

ABOUT OUR INITIATIVE

With our Improving Entrepreneurial Journey Initiative, we aspire to assist entrepreneurs in navigating the complexities of their entrepreneurial path. In this annual initiative, we surveyed over 100 Owners, Founders, CEOs, and Best-In-Class Leaders. We asked them what advice they would give themselves if they were embarking on their entrepreneurial journey anew, armed with the knowledge and experience they possess today.

With this initiative, our goal is to provide insights to both aspiring young entrepreneurs and those already deeply engaged in the world of entrepreneurship, facing various challenges on their way towards optimum success.
