This is short notice but for those in the Denver/Boulder area, here's a great panel on social entrepreneurship, sponsored by the Rockies Venture Club. The moderator (Larry Nelson) and facilitator (Chris Pelley) are both friends and passionate entrepreneurs and one of the panelists, Beth Ann Parish, is someone I met through a social media panel I facilitated at Regis.
Social Entrepreneurship: A Giant Step for Mankind and Profits
Opening remarks by Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper!
Social Entrepreneurship is the 'final frontier' of philanthropy. How can Colorado carve its place as a world leader in this new realm? We can accomplish this mission by building an alliance with business, political, and academic leaders in Colorado. Our top schools already recognize the strength of social entrepreneurship and its potential to make a global impact.
Guests and speakers from Colorado universities and leaders will participate in the ground breaking session.
