It has always been a privilege to recognize uprising young entrepreneurs these days and what not better than to continue the tradition of awarding them with global awards! Entrepreneurs.my came to understand such initiative by Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) and recommends it as a great platform to start with, the Global Student Entrepreneurship Awards 2011.

The GSEA program is the premier international award for undergraduate students who own and run their own businesses while attending post-secondary. Student entrepreneurs are nominated to compete against their peers by presenting their businesses to a panel of judges with diverse experiences in entrepreneurship.

Since 1998, the GSEA program has celebrated the success of hundreds of student entrepreneurs from 33 active countries. The program encourages students to pursue their passions while building the foundation for a solid economic future through regional and global cash awards competitions. The Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) is the facilitator of the GSEA program. This connection allows student entrepreneurs to access a network that understands passion, struggle, drive and success.
