Addis Ababa, Ethiopia – September 28, 2023 – In just two weeks, on October 12, the Enkopa Summit will inaugurate its unprecedented industry and thought leadership-oriented event in Addis Ababa. This highly anticipated summit is centered around the crucial themes of entrepreneurship and innovation, with a mission to redefine Ethiopia’s economic growth and it is open to all interested participants, regardless of their location or background.
Pioneered by Laurendeau & Associates and organized by Flawless Events, the annual Enkopa Summit is scheduled to take place on October 12th and 13th at the prestigious Science Museum in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Against the backdrop of the newly inaugurated Science Museum, attendees can expect a dynamic program featuring insightful panel discussions, policy debates, visionary keynotes, enterprise use-case presentations, corporate best practices, product and program showcases, and exclusive investor dialogues. Enkopa Summit provides an invaluable platform for exploring the potential impact of cutting-edge solutions on Ethiopia’s business and technology landscape.
Recognizing the urgent need for transformative action, Enkopa Summit aspires to propel Ethiopia into a new era of prosperity in line with its growing population, the aspirations of its youth, and the demands of external economic pressures. Strategically positioned at the crossroads of Sub-Saharan Africa, Ethiopia boasts strong diplomatic ties and logistical advantages, yet its potential has yet to be fully harnessed.
By bringing together local and regional decision-makers, policymakers, experts, innovators, academia, investors, and corporate leaders, Enkopa Summit aims to facilitate purpose-driven conversations that will shape Ethiopia’s economic transformation. The event serves as a dynamic platform for collaboration and the exchange of ideas, with a special emphasis on the transformative power of entrepreneurship, innovation, and technology.
“Entrepreneurship, innovation, and technology are not mere trends—they have the potential to revolutionize nations,” asserted Bernard Laurendeau, the managing partner of Laurendeau & Associates. “Throughout history, entrepreneurs have played a pivotal role in driving economic growth and job creation worldwide. It is imperative for Ethiopia to nurture its own ecosystem of dreamers, thinkers, innovators, and doers,” he emphasized.
As Ethiopia’s largest all-inclusive industry event dedicated to entrepreneurship, innovation, and technology, Enkopa Summit covers a wide range of topics while creating valuable networking opportunities. By encouraging connections and collaborations, the summit aims to catalyze the creation and acceleration of ventures that will reshape not only Ethiopia but the entire African continent.
With an impressive lineup of participants, speakers, and exhibitors representing diverse decision-makers, experienced professionals, and visionaries, Enkopa Summit stands as a testament to Ethiopia’s dedication to driving meaningful change.
“We are fully committed to delivering a high-quality summit that rivals major international events,” declared Yoadan Tilahun, the founder of Flawless Events. “Enkopa Summit eliminates additional expenses like travel, accommodation, and visas, offering attendees a world-class experience right here in Addis Ababa, making it accessible to the local community,” she added.
Targeting a 40% participation rate from international attendees, Enkopa Summit aims to not only transform Ethiopia but also contribute to the growth of Addis Ababa. The economic impact of the summit is expected to further fortify the city’s reputation as a global destination for major events.
