Global Social Venture Competition

Symposium

The GSVC Symposium on Social Entrepreneurship brings together over 300 leaders and innovators in social entrepreneurship, business, and academia for a full-day conference. Attend engaging panels, participate in interactive workshops, and discuss the most recent trends and issues with leading and aspiring social entrepreneurs. Meet the winners of the Global Social Venture Competition global finals, held the day before.

As the GSVC expands and builds an increasingly international network of students, entrepreneurs, academics, investors, and social venture professionals, we see the growing need and opportunity to create dialog and community around the competition. The Symposium provides a platform for discussion of the evolving field of social entrepreneurship, as well as an opportunity for investors, entrepreneurs, and nonprofit leaders to meet and interact with faculty, students, and GSVC finalists. Speakers and panel discussions will address the most recent issues in the field of social entrepreneurship and the international movement of enterprises driving social change.

Please join us on and help us strengthen and nurture the GSVC community and the social ventures that our competition helps to catalyze.
