Entrepreneurship: People.Cooperation. Development. Security.
Montenegro is the host of the Fourth World Congress of Entrepreneurs. Following a visit by a delegation of the Montenegrin Government to the World Congress of Entrepreneurs’ General Secretariat in Zagreb in March of this year, the decision was made to hold the Fourth World Congress of Entrepreneurs in Montenegro from October 16–19, 2024. “As an honour for our nation, we wholeheartedly endorse the plan to host the World Congress of Entrepreneurs in Montenegro,” said the President of Montenegro, Jakov Milatović, expressing support for hosting the Congress alongside other institutions and associations.
Advocating research and activities, with an emphasis on the necessity of understanding and bettering the world and its interactions, was the fundamental focus of the most recent Congress, which was held in Croatia. Discussions on this crucial international issue are likely to continue in Montenegro.
Attendees of the World Congress of Entrepreneurs stressed that fostering an atmosphere that guarantees freedom of action is just as important as producing economic value when discussing the nature of entrepreneurship. For entrepreneurs, this freedom is the key to realizing their dreams of innovation and progress.
“Recognizing the need for a stable and organized environment for the development of entrepreneurship was one of the conclusions drawn from the last Congress. Here, stability extends beyond monetary considerations and into the domains of social harmony and justice,” stated Vinko Ćuro, General Secretary of the Congress and President of the Board of the International Economic Forum PERSPECTIVE.
According to the participants, entrepreneurs should work toward social harmony by promoting equitable distribution and preserving the stability of primary relationships.
Another subject that will be covered at the Montenegro summit is entrepreneurship’s role in social community issues. As stated in the congressional papers, entrepreneurs have a strong bond with the communities they serve. They are keenly aware of social concerns and are in a unique position to tackle these problems responsibly and ethically. In this connection, we see how corporations and their communities work hand in hand, with each contributing to and improving the other.
The papers say that entrepreneurs are against prejudice in any form. All eligible individuals, regardless of age, gender, or any other distinction, should have an equal opportunity to contribute, while entrepreneurs should support diversity and inclusion.
The Dubrovnik Congress, which brought together over 200 entrepreneurs from nine nations, also emphasized the importance of entrepreneurship in promoting a free, open, and responsible society. It stressed that entrepreneurs, with their ethical practices and inventive ways, are the ones who will lead society towards development and overall improvement. Opportunities and threats coexist in today’s fast-changing global landscape, making this function more crucial than ever.
The World Congress of Entrepreneurs intends to support the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals 2030. This dedication embodies a worldwide perspective in which entrepreneurialism surpasses monetary gain to substantially aid in the alleviation of poverty, preservation of the environment, and promotion of social equality.
An action plan centred on the future was unveiled at the Dubrovnik Congress of Entrepreneurs, which highlighted entrepreneurs’ unique contribution to a more equitable, sustainable, and wealthy global community. Entrepreneurs, governments, and communities must concertedly work to solve global challenges and transform the planet into more than simply a marketplace-it needs to be a better place to live for everyone.
Many Montenegrin companies, such as Crnogorski Telekom, Erste Banka, Addiko Bank, Elektroprivreda Crne Gore power company, Čelebić, Put-Gross, DataLab, Science and Technology Park of Montenegro, Municipality of Berane, Municipality of Herceg Novi, and others, will be present at the fourth World Congress of Entrepreneurs in Montenegro. The President of Montenegro and the Prime Minister of Montenegro are expected to deliver addresses to the congress attendees.
