YouNoodle company in the USA is inviting applications for its YouNoodle Innovate4Good Forum open to all entrepreneurs worldwide in 2020.
INNOVATE4GOOD Forum “I4G”, a purposely driven initiative to be organized in Abu Dhabi from 30-31 March 2020. In collaboration with CATALYST, a Masdar-BP Initiative, I4G aims at solving current pressing challenges facing humanity through innovation, entrepreneurship and impact investing whilst help empowering youth and supporting communities to create a socially positive impact.
Starting your own business is like riding a roller-coaster! There are highs and lows and at every turn you make is another twist. To enjoy the ride, you must be strong, surrounded by people who are as thrilled as you are, and not feel nauseated! Because they believe that you are the co-creators of social impact in the Arab region, INNOVATE4GOOD Forum “I4G” was conceived to give you the roller-coaster natural high minus the heart attack risks.
