Multilateral cooperation on youth entrepreneurship and innovation
26-9-2018
Within the framework of efforts to support entrepreneurship in Lebanon, the Order of Engineers and Architects launched yesterday the Young Engineers Forum 2018 under the theme: ‘Entrepreneurship: The engine of socioeconomic transformation’. During the event, organized in collaboration with Rural Entrepreneurs and Tatweer Baladna association, the president of the Order Jad Tabet, said ambitious entrepreneurs all over the Arab region and in Lebanon particularly, face many social and economic obstacles. “We must work hard to achieve a qualitative leap in all areas in order to create new prospects that encourage the youth to set off their entrepreneurial ventures,” Tabet said. He explained that the stifling socio-economic crisis engulfing Lebanon, coupled with the slump in jobs in the Arab labor market and the sweeping unemployment among the young people, necessitate the adoption of public policies that target SMEs. On the other hand, the Lebanese University (LU) and RDCL World signed on Monday a cooperation agreement aimed at supporting LU and promoting participation in projects to strengthen relations between universities and institutions in terms of labor market requirements, enhance the innovative abilities and skills of students, provide access to students and professors to visit small and large enterprises in Lebanon and the region and finally, train students to work in the Lebanese private sector establishments.
