Looking Back: Key Lessons from previous Ascend Business Summit

For 2023, the focus was on helping entrepreneurs scale, innovate, and stay relevant in a constantly changing market. Attendees walked away with practical tips on growing their businesses, using AI, keeping ethics front and center, building strong partnerships, and staying on top of market and policy trends.
