The summit will be used to identify how the US can deepen ties between business leaders, foundations, and entrepreneurs in the US and Muslim communities around the world.
It will also highlight successful entrepreneurs and identify opportunities to build and strengthen economic and social entrepreneurship ecosystems.
Among key issues and challenges to entrepreneurs that will be discussed are technology and innovation, access to capital, unleashing women and youth entrepreneurship, mentoring and networking, and fostering a culture of entrepreneurship.
On the selection of attendees for the summit, Dhakshinamoorty said a portal was set up by the US government in November last year where entrepreneurs around the world nominate themselves. Only 250 people were selected.
Participants from over 50 countries in five continents have been invited to participate in the summit that will highlight the role entrepreneurship can play in addressing common challenges, while building partnerships that will lead to greater opportunity abroad and at home.
