Creating Jobs in the Post-Covid World

Every nation is facing challenges in unemployment, business closure, and income loss. Stimulus plans proposed are primarily focusing on helping companies to retain their employees and to offer unemployment benefits to those who lost their jobs. But what is the long game? Will jobs return and will they be the same jobs? How can new jobs be created? And who can do it?

A Kauffman Foundation study shows that startups make a significant source of new jobs. Can we create enough entrepreneurs to create startups and make a difference in the unemployment number? If so how do we scale this to not just today’s need, but help build thriving startups environment that addresses the future needs of the nation?

This webinar considers the importance of entrepreneurship in job creation in the post-Covid situation, and explore how can the stimulus programs be used to make a longer impact
