New year, new challenges, new opportunities. Where to start?

If you are an entrepreneur who wants to startup a new year with a new venture, join us for a free workshop to explore:

1. What mindsets do innovators need?
2. What is Lean Canvas, and how can it help me turn an idea into a business model?
3. What is social entrepreneurship?

You do NOT need a business idea to attend. A benefit of joining us is to find like-minded people and potentially team up to start a new venture.

We need an entrepreneurial spirit to start the new year with more ideas that can convert to new ventures with a vision for good. Join us! Register today to attend this social entrepreneur workshop.
