Social Enterprise
“Social Enterprise” is the title of a social-policy discussion series that focuses on new forms of social engagement. The series sees itself as an open discussion forum enabling a cross-sectoral exchange of experiences.
While the series in 2010 was more of an informational nature, presenting exemplary innovative founders and social entrepreneurs, the 2011 events will focus on social entrepreneurs and their innovative projects. In two parallel moderated round-table discussions, social entrepreneurs will talk about their current challenges and develop new ideas together with an exclusive group of participants.
With this interactive series, the BMW Foundation wants to offer ideas and inspiration for social action and provide orientation in the ever-diversifying world of social engagement. The “Social Enterprise” series takes place in cooperation with UBS Deutschland AG and Ashoka.
