Where policies are designed to support entrepreneurs and innovators, we will prioritise work with our hubs, national governments, national hub networks and strategic partners to ensure that implementation is realised as envisioned and that there are opportunities for public evaluation of these policies.

We will also develop curriculums on civic engagement and policy design for innovators and entrepreneurs. These will be critical for our hubs to better position themselves as policy influencers in their communities and contribute meaningfully to their national or local policies.
