The Branson Centre of Entrepreneurship – Caribbean and the Arthur Guinness Project recently partnered to host the annual Made of More Entrepreneurs Challenge (MoMEC).

The challenge was created to highlight the importance of entrepreneurs who are working not just to start-up, but to scale and create change in their local communities.
