Whilst in Uganda the fundamentals for high-quality development will not change, at the summit, there will be demonstration areas and experiential learning exhibitions to create opportunities for participants to connect with industry experts. If Uganda does not take a grip of the aftermaths of the coronavirus pandemic on entrepreneurs, ccurrent estimates show that 60 million people could be pushed into extreme poverty in 2020. These estimates are likely to rise further, with the reopening of advanced economies the primary determinant,” said World Bank Group President David Malpass (World Bank press release, 2020).

Dear Entrepreneur,

The greatest crisis and opportunity of our lifetime

Are you ready for the extraordinary times ahead? We have not experienced global disruptions of the severity we are witnessing today since World War 2.

Governments have closed borders. Entire industries have been shut down. Entire populations are being confined to their homes.

Stock markets have crashed and the beginning of the inevitable recession that will follow can already be felt. Like the image of the tourists standing on the beach as the 2004 Asian tsunami rolled in, many of us are either too shocked or mesmerized to move. For too many, it’s too difficult to perceive the enormous size of the wave or the speed it is travelling at, and by the time they take action it will be too late.

That’s why the time for action is now. While we’re still on the beach and we can see the approaching challenges. Having lived through the crashes and collapses of the last fifty years, there are tried and tested strategies to weather the coming downturn and surf the coming wave.

There are also strategies very specific to 2020, which will help you create cash flow now for you and your company. Even if you have a high touch business. Even if you have no idea where to start. That’s why we’ve created the Global Entrepreneur Summit.

Join us in this historic moment where what we do in the coming weeks will determine not just the coming months, but the coming decade. Every crisis is either an excuse for mediocrity or an opportunity for excellence. This is our time to shine.

TESTIMONIALS

‘Our T-shirt business has grown 12 times the size in under six months of working with Roger, and we’re projecting it’ll double again before the end of the year and hit $1 million. It’s impressive for something that was in a testing stage when we first met Roger. The key thing for us was recognising that you don’t need to keep putting the foot on the gas all the time; simply by nurturing your team and defining your rhythm you can accelerate growth.’

NES's steps to progress are simple, straightforward, logical and intuitive and they always work!.

I realised I wasn’t doing as well as I had thought. I made major changes to my life and haven’t looked back since. Thanks to NES

‘It’s such a special experience to be in a packed room with people where everyone is actively wanting you to succeed!’

Camilla Haugsten

I gained authority in the property business and secured funding for my first properties. I established my personal brand as a property investor in New Zealand. All that happened due to NES events.

‘It brought us a phenomenal transformation! We knew that the accounting space was really being disrupted and we knew we needed to drive the business in a different direction. But we had no idea how! Coming to the event several years in a row helped us to come up with a completely new business model that’s at the forefront of what’s happening in tech and crypto worlds. We’ve immersed ourselves in the entrepreneur movement. We can now say we’re running a truly global and future-facing business.’
