Global Entrepreneurship Week Basel 2026

​​​A community-powered week of ideas, learning, and connection. Every November, Basel's entrepreneurial community comes together to host, attend, and celebrate. This year, from 16 to 22 November.

Why join GEW Basel?

​​

Global Entrepreneurship Week Basel is a community-powered week of ideas, learning, and connection.

Every third week of November, the region comes alive with events hosted by and for entrepreneurs, innovators, supporters, and curious minds.

​

We don’t run the events – you do.

GEW Basel is a platform. You bring it to life.

​

​Whether you come for one event or the whole week, GEW Basel is your chance to connect, grow, and make something happen.

​​​

Throughout the week, you can:​

  • Learn something new – from practical skills to fresh perspectives

  • Get support – whether you’re stuck on an idea or just getting started

  • Share your story – or hear the honest ones others rarely tell

  • Meet new people – collaborators, mentors, or simply great company

  • Try something bold – pitch, present, or host your own session

  • Feel part of a bigger community – one that believes in doing, not just dreaming​​
