Cambodia Investment Review
Cambodia Investment Review is excited to announce the Cambodia Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Strengthening Conference (CAMESCO24), scheduled for November 25th, 2024, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
As the cornerstone event for Cambodia’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, CAMESCO24 will bring together startups, Entrepreneur Support Organizations (ESOs), ecosystem builders, government agencies, local and international investors, and global network organizations to explore opportunities and foster collaborations.
A Collaborative Initiative for Growth
Organized and co-financed by Khmer Enterprise (KE), the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), and the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) within the Enhancing Entrepreneurial Ecosystem and Investment (3Ei) initiative, CAMESCO24 is designed to connect and empower key stakeholders committed to driving Cambodia’s entrepreneurial growth and innovation.
Building on its success from previous years, the conference aims to facilitate a comprehensive recap of the year-round activities within Cambodia’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, sharing insights from regional and global initiatives with potential implications for the country, and attracting international investors interested in opportunities within Cambodia.
The theme for 2024, “Power of Collaboration for Impact,” will focus on fostering relationships that drive significant impact within Cambodia’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. By creating a collaborative environment, the conference aims to enable ecosystem actors to gain a comprehensive understanding of various initiatives and activities, fostering informed decision-making and strategic planning.
CAMESCO24 has also developed strategic partnerships with the Global Steering Group for Impact Investment (GSG Impact), the Aspen Network of Development Entrepreneurs (ANDE), and the Sasakawa Peace Foundation (SPF), significantly enhancing the conference’s global engagement. These collaborations will bring valuable expertise and insights into Cambodia’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, supporting the growth of impact-driven enterprises.
Key Highlights and Discussions
The event features an exciting lineup of speakers, including representatives from GSG Impact, GSG Impact National Partners in Asia, Sasakawa Peace Foundation, ANDE, Aquarii BD Cambodia, Seedstars, and others. These industry leaders will share their knowledge of regional and global trends, as well as strategies for fostering a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem in Cambodia.
CAMESCO24 will also witness the pre-launch of the Cambodia National Advisory Board (Cambodia-NAB), followed by a session on leveraging networks to build a dynamic impact investing ecosystem and mobilize capital for impact-driven enterprises. It will present key results from Khmer Enterprise’s initiatives, preliminary findings from the Social Network Analysis (SNA) study on the Cambodian Entrepreneur Ecosystem, and insights into global and regional trends in entrepreneurship support for driving systemic transformation in Cambodia.
Additionally, the conference will feature two tracks: “Impact Investing and Entrepreneurial Ecosystem” to harness collaborative power to build an impact ecosystem and drive systemic transformation. This aims to establish a vibrant impact investment ecosystem while promoting innovation and driving systemic changes to enhance Cambodia’s entrepreneurial ecosystem.
