Yesterday our National Leadership attended the Startup20 Summit that brings together Entrepreneurship ecosystem stakeholders from G20 countries, selected invited countries and international organisations to discuss better ways to support the start and scale of startups, micro, small and medium-sized businesses (MSMEs).

Startup20, serves as a global forum for start-ups and MSME ecosystem stakeholders to engage directly with G20 leaders raising key challenges, opportunities, and macroeconomic concerns faced by entrepreneurs.

Startup20 South Africa operates through dedicated Task Forces, each focused on priority areas that drive innovation, policy support, and global start-up collaboration. The group will develop recommendations through a consensus driven approach, with outcomes presented to the G20 Presidency for consideration at the G20 Summit 2025. This initiative reflects South Africas commitment to empowering start-ups and MSMEs as key drivers of inclusive and sustainable economic growth, and its role in advancing global economic cooperation through innovation, entrepreneurship, and digital transformation
