I take this opportunity to introduce the Commonwealth-Asia Alliance of Young Entre- preneurs (CAAYE), which is a network of young entrepreneurs and the organizations that support them. CAAYE has been established to continually promote the cause of young entrepreneurs in member countries (Bangladesh, Brunei, India, Malaysia, Mal- dives, Nepal, Pakistan, Singapore and Sri Lanka). The representing organization from Pakistan for CAAYE is Young Entrepreneurs Forum (YEF) of ICCI (facebook.com/yeficci).


CAAYE is now conducting its 2014 CAAYE Challenge. They have invited young entrepre- neurs from across the CAAYE member countries to participate in the CAAYE Challenge 2014. The theme of the Challenge is ldquo;Innovate with Purposerdquo;.


The challenge seeks to provide a platform to young entrepreneurs in the region to showcase their creative and innovative business enterprises that show potential in helping to achieve the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (UNMDG).
The challenge is open to entrepreneurs between 20 to 35 years old with closing date as September 15, 2014.
