Exploring social entrepreneurship as an Expert Panel Member at the UN INFOCUS Conference 20193/26/2020
On Wednesday 12th June 2019, I was delighted to be an expert panel speaker at the #INFOCUS Conference 2019 at the UN Palais des Nations in Geneva. I was talking about the value and power of social entrepreneurship to create solutions for people and planet, with a focus on market -making for social enterprise in Russia and youth inclusion in the design and delivery of solutions.   I explored the importance of building the soft skills of entrepreneurial mindset, understanding and living personal and corporate values; and building partnerships and supply chains well ahead of bidding for contracts together.
I was drawing on my experiences of market-making for social enterprise in the UK, particularly for health and social care organisations.
