The G20 Young Entrepreneurs’ Alliance (G20 YEA) is a collective of leading entrepreneurially-minded organizations representing the G20 countries who seek to promote youth entrepreneurship as a powerful driver of economic renewal, job creation, innovation and social change. The Alliance was founded as a movement to engage the G20 leaders in the cause of youth entrepreneurship, share information across borders, affect positive policy change and create a global network of young entrepreneur advocates while building a collaborative entrepreneurial environment worldwide. The secretariat for the G20 YEA is based in Toronto, Canada
The G20 Young Entrepreneurs’ Alliance Meeting was established in Incheon, South Korea on the 9th of November 2010.[1] The organization's charter recognizes that young entrepreneurs are powerful drivers of economic renewal, job creation, innovation and social change. The 2014 G20 YEA Summit was held in Sydney, Australia.[2] Former New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark, was one of the keynote speakers at this summit. Speaking as an administrator of the United Nations Development Programme, she said, "At the UN, we share with this G20 Young Entrepreneurs Alliance a vision of entrepreneurship as a means of empowering young people to improve their lives and contribute to their countries, and of addressing global employment challenges".[3]
