EY has been holding the Entrepreneur of the Year awards globally for over three decades. Now found in more than 60 countries, they include a global network of 50,000 entrepreneurs and are the global benchmark for capturing today’s and tomorrow’s entrepreneurial spirit.
This year has certainly pushed us all to reimagine every aspect of our world and even redefine what success looks like. The entrepreneurial community globally and here in Malt are facing enormous challenges. Many are concerned about losing their staff, their competitive edge or even their organisation.
It is clear the global pandemic has presented difficulties for entrepreneurs, but it has also given them a chance to do what they do best. Local entrepreneurs are rising to the COVID-19 challenge by asking the questions that deliver insight and inspiration.
Many have needed to respond by acting quickly and decisively. They are unstoppable entrepreneurs, determined not just to survive this crisis but to emerge with their business stronger than ever. After all, entrepreneurs are used to navigating uncharted territory. They thrive amid uncertainty.
