The Jordan News
Agency, Petra, said the entrepreneurship week concluded its weeklong meetings
in Jordan on Wednesday.
The meeting was
held under the patronage of HRH Princess Sumaya, chairperson of the Board of
Trustees of the
Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT).
In her closing
speech, the princess emphasized that the meeting provided a platform for
successful, creative, and outstanding individuals from various fields to share
their best work with others.
Regardless of the
magnitude of a feat, it is nonetheless a feat worthy of being shared. Noting
that pioneering goals may be deemed impossible by some, she insisted that
having faith in the abilities of youth is an essential part of preparing for a
prosperous future.
The Global
Entrepreneurship Week is an exceptional opportunity to learn about the
challenges and needs of other global markets, allowing young people to gain a
better understanding of the characteristics of global markets and thus overcome
the relatively limited local job market, Princess Sumaya told attendants.
The event was
organized by the
Queen Rania Center for Entrepreneurship (QRCE), in
collaboration with Zain-ZINC Jordan’s platform, and was delivered on Princess
Sumaya’s behalf by PSUT’s Acting President Wijdan Abul Haija.
The princess said
that universities will serve as a hub for developing innovative and
commercially viable solutions to the greatest existential, social, and economic
challenges, such as climate change, clean energy, fresh water, food security,
cancer, autism, and infectious diseases.
She pointed out
that universities help develop innovation and entrepreneurship organically, and
that connecting talented individuals, and working together as part of research
teams to examine challenges make them more efficient.
The princess
thanked the QRCE team, and other supporting partners for their hard work in
making the 14th Global Entrepreneurship Week a success.
Muhammad Obeidat,
director of the QRCE at PSUT, stressed the significance of the meeting, which
brought together institutions of Jordan’s entrepreneurship system to celebrate
Jordanian entrepreneurs, and provide them with guidance and opportunities to
support the entrepreneurship process.
Tareq Bitar, executive director of the Media,
Communication, Innovation and Sustainability Department at Zain Jordan, praised
the large number of Jordanian youths who attended the event, citing it as
evidence of their interest in creativity and innovation.
The activities of
the November 14–20 week focused on several topics, including environmental
systems, education, inclusion, and politics. Ninety partners took part in
nearly 500 events, both in person, and virtually.
