Is entrepreneurship going to create the mass-scale jobs we need, or should we give up the notion that those that have the most reason to be risk averse should be the ones leading the charge on risk-loving new business ventures?
In 2017, Dalberg hosted a discussion in Johannesburg centered around entrepreneurship and the launch of the book 17 Big Bets for a Better World.
A panel of business leaders and entrepreneurs – including Ashish Thakkar of the Mara Group; Thema Baloyi of Discovery Insure; Pavlo Phitidis of Aurik Investment Holdings; Maryana Iskander of Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator; Samuel Mensah of Kisua; James Mwangi of Dalberg – discussed the role of entrepreneurship in driving inclusive growth.
