So you’re a socially-minded entrepreneur, sitting in some hipster coffee shop, forlorn because you’re not sure how to take your awesome social venture ideas or plan to the next level...
What you need to energize your venture development is some real feedback from content experts and peers. That’s where pitching sessions come in!
Thanks to Social Enterprise Alliance (SEA) for the shout out in their member highlights section on their homepage.
SEA is the leading membership organization in North America for social
enterprises, service providers, nonprofit organizations, corporations,
and venture capitalists that is actively building the field of social
enterprise through networking opportunities, educational forums,
strategic partnerships, and impact legislation.
If you are looking for the bright spots, as Chip Heath, author of Switch suggests, a good place to start might be the Social Enterprise Alliance Summit in San Francisco.
Nonprofits play a vital role in implementing social change. Recognizing the social value of economic activity at the root of entrepreneurship allows us to re-calibrate what we think social entrepreneurship looks like.
The 2010 Social Enterprise Summit was recently held in San Francisco - “New Approach, New Economy: Realizing the Potential of Social Enterprise.”
The Summit is the annual signature event of the Social Enterprise Alliance, the largest membership organization for social entrepreneurs in North America. It will be conducted this year jointly with the 3rd Social Enterprise World Forum, which is rotating among five continents during a five year period.
Jane Fischberg, President & Executive Director of Rubicon Programs, was one of three leaders who participated in a Social Enterprise Alliance SF Bay Area event on Successes, Challenges, and Outlook to 2010 and Beyond.
