Entrepreneurship Essential for Jobs and Economic Resilience, Economist Says

Entrepreneurship and small and medium-sized enterprises have become essential to supporting economic growth and creating jobs, according to economics professor Dr. Amr Soliman.

Soliman stressed their importance amid global economic challenges, describing entrepreneurship as a necessity in confronting crises rather than simply an option for business development.

His remarks linked the role of smaller businesses to two key economic priorities: sustaining growth and expanding employment opportunities.

The assessment places entrepreneurship at the centre of efforts to respond to economic pressures, highlighting the importance of small and medium-sized enterprises in that response.
