Ubuntu and the New Logic of Entrepreneurship
This panel invites the public to rethink entrepreneurship from the perspective of interdependence. Inspired by the African philosophy of Ubuntu, the panel proposes shifting the focus from the individual to the community, understanding innovation as collective construction and value as the result of relationships. By questioning the competitive model centered on the "I", we will discuss collaboration, co-responsibility and shared impact. Entrepreneurship, from this perspective, is about strengthening networks, because no success is truly solitary.
