The Growth Circle

The Growth Circle - Start & Grow brings together participants in Arish for a practical afternoon of entrepreneurship learning, peer exchange and community connection. The day is structured around two complementary activities for different stages of the entrepreneurial journey.

1:00 PM–3:00 PM  |  Start Thinking

Participants will learn how to notice real problems, understand customers, and think of simple solutions. No previous startup experience is needed. The session will be practical and interactive.

3:30 PM–5:30 PM  |  Business Circle

Business owners and entrepreneurs will meet to talk about customer needs, new growth opportunities, and the challenges they face in their businesses. The session will help them find practical opportunities and learn from each other.

Networking and closing connect participants across both activities. Attendees should leave with stronger local connections, clearer next steps and practical ideas they can continue testing after GEW.
