At a time when we need it the most, business leaders, educators and policymakers are coming together under the common believe that a solid small business sector, growing through innovation, benefits everyone.

The Innovation Economy Expo is an annual, day long, interactive forum designed to connect businesses, innovators and entrepreneurs with the global resources needed for growth.

With participation ranging from sole proprietors to large international organizations, Innovation Economy Expo is attracting global attention as one of the largest collaborative efforts focused on advancing business creation and growth. 

This is the first step in creating a crowd-driven global collaboration platform to advance innovation and build high-growth companies in today's new innovation economy.  

 

The mission of Innovation Economy Expo is threefold:

 

 1.    Promote a culture of international collaboration by linking innovators and entrepreneurs to the global resources needed for growth;

 2.    Help educators and students stay in step with an ever-changing business environment by connecting them with businesses; and

 3.    Engage policy-makers in a dialogue on the economic and social benefits of business success.

 

A high-growth, sustainable economy can only be created if we foster collaboration amongst all stakeholders.

 

The only businesses that will succeed are those who have access to the global resources they need to compete.
