Youth Ambassadors

One of WSA's major goals is engaging young innovators and supporting youth in entrepreneurship. To make sure this goal is met, WSA leverages its worldwide network of Youth Ambassadors. Together with the WSA National Experts, they offer their vast experience in the ICT and entrepreneurial sector, diverse backgrounds and social engagement to support the promotion of the call and the national pre-selection of entries to the WSA. WSA leverages its network in 182 UN member countries.

To be introduced to one of WSA’s Youth Ambassadors, please contact WSA office.
