After having realized the need of an intensive program dedicated to brewing up young
Entrepreneurs, a team of youths designed and organized the Global Entrepreneurship
Bootcamp (GEB) in September 2017 in Nepal.
GEB brought together many young innovative minds from around the world to innovate and
create new businesses through collaboration. Based on the ‘24 Steps of Disciplined
Entrepreneurship’ of Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology (MIT), the primary aim of GEB has
always been to develop the necessary entrepreneurial skills in the participants. GEB is the
platform to interact with mentors and successful entrepreneurs who can guide the participants
in making a successful startup.
GEB is an opportunity to be exposed to new cultures and perspectives, both entrepreneurial
and otherwise. GEB creates an environment where people from all backgrounds can create,
innovate, collaborate and compete in a friendly atmosphere.
The success of the first edition of the Bootcamp led to the second edition being organized in
Bangkok, Thailand from January 15th to 18th, 2018. Likewise, the third Bootcamp was held in
Jakarta, Indonesia from 2nd to 5th July 2018. The fourth edition of GEB was held in Kuala
Lumpur, Malaysia from 17th to 20th December 2018 followed by the fifth edition in Bangkok,
Thailand from 27th to 30th June 2019 and sixth edition in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from 16th
to 19th December 2019. The 7th edition of Bootcamp was conducted after COVID from 22nd
to 25th July 2022 in Bangkok, Thailand followed by the 8th edition in Bangkok, Thailand from
16th to 19th December 2022.
GEB has grown successively from an educational and leadership session on entrepreneurship to
a bridge connecting the innovative minds and global investors by the eighth edition. In each
successive edition, GEB has constantly updated and revised its format in order to make it
simpler for young minds, keeping its originality unharmed. Till 8th edition, GEB has 1300+
alumni from 100+ different countries and have pitched 135+ startup ideas raising USD 30M+
funding for their startups
GEB has always focused on imparting entrepreneurial education, with special emphasis on
Asian and African countries where the entrepreneurial ecosystem in lacking entrepreneurship is
just a new term.

“ I was amazed by how many passionate juniors and high school students were present
at the Bootcamp and how dedicated they are to creating a better world through
entrepreneurship. This showed me how youths can be empowered at an early age if
they are given the right platform to showcase their skills and I am confident GEB
entrepreneurs will develop business groups that will inspire generations. GEB is more
than just a Bootcamp, it's a real movement to create global change makers.”

“ The GEB in Bangkok was a wonderful experience from the beginning to the end.
I had the opportunity to work with an amazing multicultural team of students and
entrepreneurs that enriched both my personal and professional knowledge.
Developing a business plan and pitching the idea before a commission of judges
made me develop and improve practical skills that are fundamental in nowadays’
job market. Lastly I had the honour to be part of the winning team of GEB 2022
which was an indescribable moment. The Bootcamp was the perfect event for networking,
learning essential skills, and making lifelong friendships.

Attending GEB Bangkok 2019 was one of the best experiences of my life so far. I
thank GEB for providing this unique platform to learn from experienced Speakers
and mentors from different nations. Meeting and hearing from Nobel Laureate
Professor Mohammed Yunus was the best part of the Event. GEB has helped me to
learn the Art of Entrepreneurship in depth by providing the opportunity to learn &
innovate. Furthermore, GEB Bangkok has given me so many good memories with
new friends from different nations which I will cherish for a long time.
The things I learned, if I can follow them in my life, I can say that then my life would
change completely! Met amazing people from around the world, made friends and
yeah, these 4 days are never to be forgotten
