TurkeyThey considered various ways to improve access to capital for entrepreneurs and new businesses, and the impact of cooperation with the Maghreb diaspora in the United States; how to encourage and support youth entrepreneurs, and how to promote cross-border business partnership. They learned how to network with other entrepreneurs, even shared their own experiences.  Much of the activity was aimed at creating and maintaining cross-regional and U.S.-Maghreb cooperation.
The goal of the U.S.-Maghreb Entrepreneurship Conference is to positively impact 100,000 people in the United States and the Maghreb over the next five years. It is part of the global alliance partners for a new beginning, a locally driven initiative supported by a global coalition of business and civil society leaders.
"The true wealth of a nation is found in the creative minds of its people and their freedom and ability to bring those ideas to life — to develop not only new products, but the technologies that will create entirely new industries, entire new markets, entire new opportunities," said Vice President Joseph Biden at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in Turkey last December.
By empowering local entrepreneurs, the United States hopes to help the private sector develop and thrive, further encouraging foreign investment and improving economic stability in the countries of the Maghreb.
