SUMMARY:2025 Global Engagement Summit
DESCRIPTION:The Global Engagement Summit is an entirely student-run social entrepreneurship conference held annually in Evanston\, IL\, on Northwestern’s campus. GES brings together trailblazers from all over the world to collaborate\, learn about social entrepreneurship from distinguished mentors and speakers\, and ultimately further their own social entrepreneurship projects. Past summits have drawn delegates from 20 different countries and have featured keynote speakers such as David Simas\, CEO of the Obama Foundation\, Nobel Laureate\, Nadia Murad\, and Betsy Ziegler\, CEO of top non-profit incubator 1871 Chicago. \nProspective delegates\, individuals aged 18-26\, apply to GES with their own unique social entrepreneurship projects. Projects can address any social issue that the applicant finds pressing and important\, and can vary in scale\, scope\, and stage. Programming at the Summit is aimed at facilitating the growth and development of their projects\, and the Summit culminates in a pitch competition. \nWe invite any young changemakers to apply to be a delegate in the 2025 Summit\, to be held on April 23rd through 27th\, 2025. This is a great opportunity for people interested in civic engagement\, business\, and entrepreneurship. Additionally\, The Global Engagement Summit is an incredible way to travel to the United States and connect with like-minded individuals from around the globe. We are proud to offer financial aid to help cover the costs of transportation and logistics for accepted delegates.
