SPARK: DIY Social Enterprise (S1)

 

How can businesses make positive change, while still making enough money to keep doing the same thing tomorrow?

In this workshop you’ll learn about the different social and environmental issues that social enterprises can solve, as well as the different business models that they can use to create and capture value. Then, in small groups, you’ll take a social issue and a business model and brainstorm a new social enterprise, before pitching it back to the group.
