British Prime Minister Gordon Brown joined Carl Schramm of the Kauffman Foundation in starting the countdown to Global Entrepreneurship Week, 17-23 November 2008, the world's biggest single event celebrating and promoting entrepreneurship amongst young people.
Representatives from more than 25 participating countries were on hand for the announcement and working sessions designed to share information and plan for the coming year. The event took place during Enterprise Week, the centerpiece of Make Your Mark's campaign to promote enterprise culture to young people in the UK.

Thank you for this post supporting Global Entrepreneurship Week. I hope it will inspire young entrepreneurs to pick up the challenge and get an idea moving forward.
Over the past month, I have been looking for ways to bring attention to Global Entrepreneurship Week, which is an effort to promote entrepreneurship as a career for young people in more than 60 countries around the world. I have been collecting the best of posts on entrepreneurship that I can find and consolidating them through links on a web directory.
I hope this event will bring a focus that will create millions more young people who take on the challenge of changing the world.
