The Communiqué made the following three recommendations to G20 leaders, voted on by entrepreneurs: 1. Quality Education: We call upon G20 governments to review educational priorities to ensure young people have access to knowledge and skills vital for new technological and business realities, including digital competencies, STEM education, and venture creation skills. 2. Smart taxation schemes. We call on G20 leaders to enable SMEs to scale through tax incentives for scale-ups and investors by adopting progressive policy measures like a separate tax category for young entrepreneurs working in priority areas of innovation and social entrepreneurship. We further encourage the harmonization of taxation schemes in the G20 countries to lower barriers for doing business across borders, including reducing barriers and creating tax incentives for cross-border access to capital in the G Ensure the mobility of entrepreneurs through a G20 Entrepreneur Visa and administrative simplification. In particular, the delegation would like to see Canada take a leadership role in implementing a young entrepreneur visa program for Canada alongside the Working Holiday visa. Please see the official 2017 G20YEA Communiqué and press release. Next Steps Following the Summit, the delegates will continue to advance their businesses, and will work with government and corporate leaders to implement the Summit recommendations to support youth entrepreneurship at home in Canada. Applications to be part of the 2018 G20 YEA Canadian delegation to Argentina will open next year.
