Entrepreneur Café is a global concept, it exists in more than 105 cities in the world and over 9 cities in Morocco. Entrepreneur Café is supported by NASSCOM 10K in India. The concept is introduced to the country by Miss. Sara Oueld El Hachmi the CEO of Casa Education.

 Entrepreneur Café Agadir is organized every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month by:  Miss. Amal Ben Attou Communication Master Studies Student at Ibn Zohr University, and Mr. Allaoui Abdessamad the CEO of Lingo Institute.

Entrepreneur Café Agadir third meeting took place on Thursday November the 12th at Pespada Café Restaurant. This third meeting was once again a memorable gathering of Agadir citizens. This time the participant were over 50 person, from different age categories. For the third time all those people reunited to discuss another entrepreneurial theme.

 “Concretization of Projects” was the theme of Entrepreneur Café Agadir third meeting, for this reason the team of Entrepreneur Café Agadir invited two different profiles to intervene and debate with the audience about the concretization of projects.

The first speaker was Abdurrahman Zaidi a young entrepreneur from Agadir. Abdurrahman is the owner of Pespada restaurant. He started his talk using a special technique of interaction with the public using a small fin ball to ask every one present a question relevant to the Entrepreneurial Domain. Abdurrahman during his speech explained that to concretize a project, a whole technical and pragmatic process should be followed .According to his perception every single action must be very carefully calculated. To conclude his intervention Abdurrahman expressed that a project is like a new born baby it needs concentration, efforts and more importantly patience to be raised adequately.

The Second speaker was Mehdi Reghai. Mehdi is also a young entrepreneur in the domain of internet and technology. Mehdi’s speech was totally different from Abdurrahman’s one in terms of technicality. For Mehdi a project to be concretized it needs to be real and more importantly it need a deep ambition and wiliness. Through Mehdi’s speech we could recognize that it is for sure important to have a project, it is essential to follow a technical plan, but it not enough, it is not the only thing to be worked on. According to Mehdi a project can be concretized and can fulfill success if the project owner or founder strongly believes in that project.  Mehdi explained to the audience that a project is a journey to live in and with. It is a choice to make and to be proud of it. Realizing a project is a risk to take and to learn from it. To wind up his speech Mehdi said : “If you really want to be an Entrepreneur go ahead even if you fail one , two or three times you don’t lose because you learn “

Agadir is amazingly full of youth potential  who just need a push and a light to follow the path and Entrepreneur Café meetings are  present to offer them the chance to express themselves and talk about their ideas and projects and why not to invest and make their dreams a reality .
See you next Meetings cheers!

India has slowly started to witness those 24 hour mega marathon, non-stop Hackathons — a concept though largely borrowed from the west, but fits in perfectly to the startup ecosystem in India. While hackathons continue to happen, you don’t really see a startup convention or a conference, running non stop for 24 hours, for two long days ! Welcome to Entrepreneur Cafe’s ‘Annual Global Convention’.

The Annual Global Convention 2015 would be a non-stop 24-hour event which will be focused towards bringing all stakeholders related to startup community i.e. experts, investors, mentors and entrepreneurs on a common platform.

Talking to us on the event’s USP over others, Budh Aditya Sengupta, AVP, Entrepreneur Café says,
Unlike other events, the focus of AGC 2015 is on interaction & we have curated the event in such a way that it will give an opportunity to participants to interact with experts. We have Power Dinner wherein participants can meet their startup soulmate; Cocktail Party to ease everybody and increase the interaction; Bonfire to set up an informal yet discussion oriented environment and Champion’s Breakfast to let participants meet with experts & eminent personalities from all walks of life. Along with this, we have sessions such as Shark Tank where 15 startups will get the opportunity to present & get their startup funded on-the-spot.

The event, which has 15+ confirmed speakers — including the likes of  Mahesh Murthy; Rajnish Menon, Gen VK Singh (retd), Union Minister, Govt of India — promises to be one hell of a startup marathon, one that you just can’t give a miss. And just so that you actually don’t miss this one, you can get your event passes right here.
And yes, as you might have already guessed it, we are covering this event LIVE right from the very first minute to the end of that 24th hour — through live blogging, streaming and lots more. So if by any chance, you are not gonna make it to the event, pick up your smartphone and simply log on to the Tech Portal for live on-ground coverage.
Apart from coverage, we will also be looking out for startups — which our team finds technologically disruptive enough — for a feature on the website. So yeah, you have that opportunity too !
See you at the event folks. Ciao !
