Human Resources and Skills Development Canada is pleased to invite you to the second webinar in the Social Finance Connects series. The webinar will feature thought leaders on the importance of building business capacity in the not-for-profit sector (NFP) to ensure NFP organizations can participate in social finance opportunities. Key business capacity development issues will be discussed, including how to sharpen ideas and build a winning proposal, attracting non-governmental partners and funds for your social purpose initiative, and succeeding at pitch sessions. Business acumen also extends to a set of governance and management skills that will help NFP organizations improve their performance and achieve greater social outcomes. Perspectives and tools on how to integrate private sector practices into NFP operations will be shared. This webinar will help prepare NFP organizations for discussions related to accessing financial capital, such as investment and patient capital, at various stages of their operations, from idea generation to scaling and replicating a proven initiative
Join us as we welcome guest speakers Tim Draimin, Social Innovation Generation, Heather Crosbie, ventureLAB York Region, and Aaron Good, J.W. McConnell Family Foundation.
