Ethiopian Entrepreneurs Association Launch Event - 21.05.15

Posted: May, 11th 2015 Contributor: Bilen Shifferaw,

Shaping Ethiopia’s future.

Between 1980 and 1990’s millions of Ethiopians were scattered across the world as diaspora. Meanwhile in the 2000’s economic development skyrocketed with Deloitte describing it as a “Growth miracle” in 2014, so much so that Ethiopia aims to be a middle-income country by 2025.

These two historical forces of migration and infrastructure development are now converging in 2015, for the beginning of an “Entrepreneurship miracle”. After 25 years in diaspora the Ethiopian community is maturing to collaborate and embrace globalization to create the future.

Our aim is pioneering Ethiopian Entrepreneurship in several global locations to specifically make the 2020’s one of Ethiopia’s greatest decades.

What should this future look like? How should we seize it? And what are the best ways to contribute as a diaspora? This is what we will be launching into this May 21st. Come and be part of the conversation and community.
