English to Arabic Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) Business
At a recent Start-up Day conference in Stockholm, the entrepreneur and blogger Annika Lidne noted: “The reflection I can’t seem to let go of from the day had nothing to do with the speakers and all to do with the audience. Where were all the young Swedish entrepreneurs? Or, even more scary, are they an endangered species? Of the 20- to 30-year-old crowd, 80% seemed to be Asian or Middle Eastern… or is it that young Swedes still are obediently goaded into big corporation conformity, have an adversity to risk or an antipathy towards hard work? I don’t know. What I do know is that if things don’t change soon, Sweden is going to be a second-rate country in a world run by an Indo Chinese joint venture.”

لم يكن الأمر متعلقا بالمتحدثين ولكن كل الانطباعات تركزت حول الحضور أنفسهم
