Suzanne Gardner, the Laurel Centre’s Director of Communications, has a guest post over at SocialFinance.ca discussing the 2nd Annual Conference on Social Entrepreneurship which took place at the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University last weekend.
I also had the pleasure of meeting Karim and Michael, the guys behind SocialFinance.ca, at the Social Finance Forum in Toronto last week and they are working hard to build SocialFinance.ca as the place to discuss the advancement of social finance in Canada.
Karim also does an excellent job of providing a recap of the Social Enterprise Summit as well.
Their website is certainly a great resource, and if you have not already checked it out, I would encourage you to do so.
That being said, with social finance and sustainable revenue generating models being such hot topics in Canada and around the world right now, the themes for next year’s 3rd Annual Conference on Social Entrepreneurship hosted by the Laurel Centre may focus on these two topics.
Watch this space for more details.
