Changing the fortune of the world can’t be done in a snap. Come and learn how practitioners are putting dollars behind their values and finding innovative community-based approaches to support social entrepreneurs.
The Georgia State University Entrepreneurship & Innovation Institute (ENI) and Georgia Social Impact Collaborative bring together a panel of four local luminaries in the social impact space who are creating new and innovative funding models for social impact.
Our panelists will ponder and respond to these questions:
- How is social impact and entrepreneurship nurtured and deployed in Georgia?
- How can impact funds foster social impact in Georgia?
