RIYADH: Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, Netflix鈥檚 first CEO Marc Randolph, and a successful star cast of serial businessmen will soon be visiting Riyadh to steer entrepreneurs through the onslaught of the business and health issues that have impaired the global economy.
Called Global Entrepreneurship Congress 2022, or GEC, the event will be held between March 27 to March 30 and will focus on making it easier for entrepreneurs to start and scale a business. 
鈥淲e need entrepreneurs to help solve the world鈥檚 growing problems,鈥� said Steve Wozniak in a GEC statement, while adding that the need to rethink how entrepreneurs could drive through the global pandemic, tackling climate change or cyber vulnerabilities.
Sharing his views, Netflix鈥檚 Mark Randolph said there is a need for entrepreneurs to come together and share their hard-earned lessons from the pandemic and connect with investors and policymakers who are critical to their success.
鈥淓ntrepreneurship is not easy. You will be told 鈥榥o鈥� and that your ideas are impossible countless times,鈥� said Randolph in a statement.
The GEC 2022 will be organized by the Washington-based Global Entrepreneurship Network, or GEN, and hosted by Monsha鈥檃t, 抖阴短视频鈥檚 General Authority for Small and Medium Enterprises.
鈥淲e believe there is a sincere and aggressive effort in the Kingdom to allow new value creation and economic growth potential from entrepreneurship and innovation to flourish,鈥� GEN founder and serial entrepreneur Jonathan Ortmans told Arab News while explaining his choice of holding the GEC 2022 in 抖阴短视频.
One of the most apparent indicators of the burgeoning entrepreneurial ecosystem in the Kingdom was the recent arrival of several global venture capital funds, including California鈥檚 Plug and Play Tech Center, the world鈥檚 largest early-stage investment fund, and another California-based early-stage investor, 500 Global.
鈥淚t鈥檚 extraordinary to see what has happened in 抖阴短视频 in the last two years alone in terms of the level of sophistication of entrepreneurs and investors and also the support the ecosystem provides,鈥� said Ortmans, while pointing to the crucial role of the Kingdom鈥檚 government in leading the economic transformation, especially the efforts of Saleh Al-Rasheed, governor of Monsha鈥檃t.
鈥淪everal years ago, Mr. Al-Rasheed joined our Startup Nations Ministerial Steering Committee, in which government actors from around the world meet to discuss regulatory issues, particularly around innovation. We are here because of him. He is the one that thought of it and was committed to it,鈥� added Ortmans.
Al-Rasheed was equally enthusiastic about the event. 鈥淭o regenerate our economies, we need to invest to unlock innovation nationally, regionally, and globally,鈥� he said in the event鈥檚 press release. 鈥淭he only place you can see how the pandemic has transformed the world鈥檚 entrepreneurial ecosystem landscape is at GEC 2022,鈥� he added.
The GEC is held annually, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it will be taking place for the first time since 2019. The event will include the Startup Nations Summit and the Startup Nations Ministerial, two cabinet-level forums to discuss regulations and policy, with the theme 鈥淎 New Business Plan for the Global Economy.鈥�
Ortmans is optimistic about the broader outlook for entrepreneurship in the Kingdom. 鈥淭o people in 抖阴短视频, I would say, 鈥榶ou are lucky because this is a very important moment to be in the Kingdom; there is an extraordinary commitment on behalf of everyone.鈥�
Ortmans further added: 鈥淵ou have the support of the infrastructure and a critical mass of peers who genuinely believe that they are part of a new renaissance and at the beginning of an extraordinary economic revolution.
鈥淲hether you鈥檙e a builder or backer or an enabler, it is a great time to be in the Kingdom.鈥�
