Young people are the future, all the more so when they are at the forefront of innovative and creative entrepreneurship. Bringing these young people together from around the world, so that they can share and learn from each other are the aims of the 4th Global Youth Entrepreneurs Forum.
'We the Future' is the theme which says it all. The Global Youth Entrepreneurs Forum 2017, organized by HKFYG and HKU DreamCatchers is an exciting and educational event, not just for all young startups, but also for those who support them!
