Entrepreneurship World Cup
What Is EWC?
The Entrepreneurship World Cup (EWC) is one of the world's largest and most inclusive startup pitch competitions and support programs.
"EWC is more than a pitch competition. Since its launch in 2019, EWC has engaged over 420,000 entrepreneurs from more than 191 countries, providing a global platform for innovators from idea stage through growth stage.
It has awarded $6.5 million in cash prizes and unlocked over $150 million in in-kind support, connecting founders with mentorship, investor networks, and strategic market-entry opportunities-especially in Saudi Arabia."
How the Competition Works
By analyzing feedback from over 420,000 entrepreneurs across 191 countries, EWC tailors its support-from mentorship and pitch training to investor matchmaking-around real needs, not assumptions. This data-informed, human-centered approach ensures every entrepreneur receives relevant, actionable guidance at their stage of growth.
