Global Young Entrepreneur of the Year Awards

YBI’s Global Young Entrepreneur of the Year Awards will celebrate innovative and inspiring young entrepreneurs who are leading the way in impact business, developing solutions to today’s social, climate and sustainability problems.

There are three stages to the awards.

1. Nine finalists, three per award category (see below) were selected at a pitch day during the Youth Business International Bootcamp in June 2024.
2. A public vote has now decided the winner in each category.
3. A final judging panel will now decide the overall Global Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award winner, selected from the three category winners.

All four prizes will be awarded at a ceremony at the Global Youth Entrepreneurship Summit this October. Learn more about these inspiring young entrepreneurs by clicking on the profiles below.
