I met Cathy Bogaart recently, the MaRS webmaster and she told me about a really interesting, probably first of its kind event the Social Entrepreneurship Summit.
The event is being held Dec 4 and attendance is free.
Here's how they qualify your attendance:
Are you determined to make a positive impact in the community?
- Have you started or do you lead, an organization that has an innovative way of looking at and solving issues that you’ve identified in society?
- Do you have an interest in being your own boss?
- Are you determined to bring new approaches to old problems?
If you answered YES to these questions – then YOU ARE a social entrepreneur.
