The Sulaymaniyah National Entrepreneurship Summit (SNE) is Iraq’s premier national stage for innovation, designed to unite and showcase the country’s most promising entrepreneurial talent. Transcending local boundaries, the SNE serves as a central hub of opportunity, bringing together a curated audience of influential investors, government officials, and industry leaders to foster a truly national ecosystem of investment and growth.

The Summit is the prestigious capstone event of the “Youth Entrepreneur Bootcamp,” a landmark initiative implemented across Kurdistan Region. This program was launched on August 12, 2025—International Youth Day—to empower the next generation of Iraqi leaders.

To date, the initiative has successfully mentored 125 high-potential participants from Sulaymaniyah, Halabja, Kalar, Chamchamal, and Ranya. By bridging the gap between visionary startups and strategic capital, SNE acts as a powerful catalyst for economic diversification and youth empowerment across the Republic of Iraq.
