Director EABS, Comprise Think-Tank of First World Entrepreneurship Forum Held in France

The World Entrepreneurship Forum, founded by EMLYON Business School, the leading European business school in Entrepreneurship, and KPMG, the leading tax, audit and advisory services company, is the first worldwide think-tank dedicated to entrepreneurs and their role in society. Internationally recognized business school and global leader in entrepreneurship education, Babson College (Boston, USA), has just joined the two founding partners in the organization of the event.

Dr. Nikhil Agarwal, Director, Europe-Asia Business School (EABS) has been invited along with two other Indians to be part of the think-tank. Dr. Agarwal said, "The troubled times has brought the focus back on entrepreneurship." He emphasised, "Developing nations like India should build up the enterprises which can provide not only employment to the people but help in eradicating poverty from the country."

Destined to become the annual gathering for global entrepreneurial leaders, the World Entrepreneurship Forum bought together 96 selected personalities representing 35 nationalities. Four profiles that each have an entrepreneurial role in society - entrepreneurs, social entrepreneurs, politicians, and experts - met and discussed the topic of "Entrepreneur as a Creator of Economic Wealth & Social Justice".

After the deliberations, 12 recommendations were suggested by the think-tank members. Based on these recommendations, now further research will be carried out at the business school and application will be advised to entrepreneurs from across the world.
