Description

Entrepreneurship presents unique opportunities and challenges from country to country around the world. Some of the experiences of entrepreneurs transcend national and cultural borders, but some others do not. This session welcomes papers and presentations which describe the barriers experienced by real entrepreneurs in their different countries and regions. A panel with industry experts from around the world will set the stage followed by a discussion which highlights the commonalities and unique characteristics of nation-specific entrepreneurial barriers as identified by the individual papers presented. This is a technical session co-sponsored by the IAF Space Entrepreneurship and Investment Committee (SEIC) and the IAF Workforce Development/Young Professionals Programme Committee, as part of the Global Technical Sessions – presenters can present in person at the IAC or from their home/work/university location."
