Making Change, Making Meaning: Women Social Entrepreneurs February 12, 2013

Precisely defining the "what", "how" and "who" of social entrepreneurship often leads to debate, however women engage in social entrepreneurial activity more often than in any other mainstream entrepreneurial activity.

The challenge is to make women more visible, harness their skills and connect them to relevant and influential stakeholders, and by doing so, enable them to become more confident and competent social entrepreneurs.

Are you a social entrepreneur or are you thinking of starting a social venture? Join us for an engaging discussion about women social entrepreneurs. Everyone is welcome; please bring an experience to share and be inspired by an interesting topic and an amazing group of women.
