On the occasion of Skill and Entrepreneurship Week, and August 7, the National Day of Entrepreneurship and Employment, the Managing Director of Khuzestan Exhibition Center and President of the Iranian Exhibition Association has issued the following message, highlighting the pivotal role of exhibitions in supporting skill development and job creation:

In the Name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

August 7, Entrepreneurship Day, is an occasion to honor those who, with creative vision and commendable perseverance, lay the foundations of our country’s economy. Entrepreneurial men and women, by creating unique opportunities and harnessing up-to-date knowledge, ensure sustainable growth and drive the flourishing of our nation. They are the inspiration for future generations and the social capital of today, setting the pace of life in motion.

In this regard, international exhibitions across the country serve as dynamic platforms that foster job creation, support entrepreneurs, and showcase innovative achievements. In recent years, these exhibitions have diligently fulfilled their role as accelerators of the country’s economic development.

Now, as we mark the beginning of Skill and Entrepreneurship Week, and approach August 7, Entrepreneurship and Technical & Vocational Education Day, we once again emphasize the unique role of entrepreneurs in the advancement of society. We call upon all officials to promote skill-building opportunities and empower young generations, further strengthen laws, and improve the business environment, thereby offering effective and meaningful support to entrepreneurs—the pioneers of work and employment—because the prosperity of dear Iran depends on the growth of entrepreneurs and forerunners of development and employment.
