This year, the www.gec.co Congress is back in our diaries after two good years of absence due to COVID 19. How did the various ecosystems behave in the face of this pandemic? What good practices can be shared between ecosystem actors, how can we reinvent ourselves after this pandemic which has left no economy indifferent? How to rethink the future after COVID and manage more serenely? How to regenerate all these initiatives which took a blow because of COVID, here are a certain number of questions that entrepreneurs both in Cameroon and elsewhere are asking themselves

For its part, GEN Cameroon with its partners have made a strong mobilization with the various actors of our ecosystem and managed to mobilize some 40 delegates who are currently led by MINPMEESA SE Achille BASSILEKIN III Minister of SMEs that the Head of State has kindly put on mission to lead this important delegation in the framework of the 12th Edition of this important Congress, our delegation is composed of officials (8 structures including MINPMEESA, MINEPAT; MINFI, MINRESI, MINFI, MINREX, MINESUP, CAPEF), actors of the private sector, Incubators and about ten selected Startups.

We are going to Riyadh not only to sell the destination of Cameroon but also to present our various achievements in terms of innovation and development of our national ecosystem, the GEC which www.genglobal.org coordinates being the most important global reference in terms of entrepreneurship for at least 14 years.

In Riyadh there will be the largest mobilization of business angels, investors, venture capitalists and other innovators to interact and share opportunities, best practices and inspire future generations on the future of the world. No nation in the world can do without entrepreneurs and Cameroon has understood this, which is why for the past 4 years, our
government has always been represented at this important Congress by its leading ministry in entrepreneurship, MINPMEESA, several other ministries and other structures both from the government and the private sector, and even incubators, and this year, we managed to constitute the strongest Cameroonian delegation participating in www. gec.co, some 40 people including Officials (MINPMEESA, MINEPAT, MINFI, MINREX, MINESUP, MINRESI, CAPEF, API), from the Private Sector (16 participants), from Incubators and some 10 Startups selected.

This shows how important entrepreneurship issues are and how much interest and passion they arouse.
