Building a Startup Community: Why, how, and what Why do we need a “community” for startups? How can entrepreneurs engage the community throughout this process? And what a startup community is in the first place? These are some of the questions we’ll raise in our session! We’re introducing the concept of startup communities and see how it helped startups worldwide prosper and grow. Then we’ll start applying this concept in our context in Palestine. This workshop would be highly interactive and we would love to get your insights and BUILD a community! Then we’ll dig deeper into the “WHY”. Why do we need this startup community? What benefits do startups get from it? And then how can the whole society get involved and benefit? How are entrepreneurs contributing to solving our problems? And what’s the role of community partners and the society in supporting entrepreneurs (and vise versa).
