With the theme ‘Achieving the SDGs through Fostering Innovation and Economic Growth’, WEIF 2024 aspires to address global challenges, including poverty, inequality, climate change, peace, and justice; within the backdrop of the Sustainable Development Goals. Innovation and economic growth are critical enablers for achieving the SDGs. Innovation can lead to the development of new technologies, products and services that can address social and environmental challenges. Economic growth can provide the resources needed to invest in sustainable development initiatives. Fostering innovation and economic growth requires a multifaceted approach that includes: Promoting entrepreneurship: Governments can create conducive ecosystems and an enabling environment for entrepreneurship by providing access to smart finance, capacity building, incubation, networking and mentorship. Encouraging partnerships, collaboration and knowledge sharing: Collaboration between entrepreneurs, MSMEs, government, academia and civil society in different sectors is essential for fostering innovation. Investing in research and development (R&D): Governments, businesses and universities can all play a role in increasing investment in R&D. This can lead to the development of new technologies that can help to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems. Creating a Culture of Innovation: Cultivating a culture that values creativity, risk-taking and collaboration is crucial for fostering innovation. This can be achieved by promoting open communication, encouraging experimentation and rewarding innovative ideas. By fostering innovation and economic growth, we can create a more sustainable and equitable world for all.
