Enterprising Places & Ecosystems

In today's interconnected world, thriving ecosystems are the lifeblood of economic growth and sustainable development. This symposium brings together thought leaders, practitioners, academics, and policymakers to discuss how places—from urban hubs to regional centres—foster innovation, support enterprising ventures, and build resilient communities.

We aim to uncover insights on how to create environments that nurture entrepreneurship, empower local economies, drive positive social impact, as well as attract and retain the right talent for the right industries.

Engage in thought-provoking keynotes, interactive round table discussions, and insightful panel sessions across diverse themes such as Creative and Cultural Enterprise, Sustainable Societies, Industry Ecosystems, International Business, and Tourism and Leisure Management.
