Social Entrepreneurship Challenge

Posted by Stephanie on May 10, 2012 at 7:50 PM Comments comments (0)

Want to compete this summer in a case competition?

SFU Surrey is hosting their annual Social Entrepreneurship Challenge (SEC) in June. This competition is open to all schools and is like no other as students are not provided with a case. Instead, they are asked to create a product or a service with a seed fund of $100 and create some sort of positive social impact while raising funds for 3 preselected African Entrepreneur's projects.

The OC has also partnered with AIESEC SFU and SFU Global Agents to create an info session on May 19, 2012 where there will be a 2-3 hour simulation of this competition. Groups of 3 will go through this simulation, and by the end, should have a general idea of what type of project they would take on if they were to participate in this challenge. This would be a great opportunity for you to learn more about the competition.

Check out their site for more info!
