Introduction to Social Enterprise

A second Introduction to Social Enterprise workshop may be scheduled later in the Spring if there is sufficient demand.

This workshop will be facilitated by Shahil Thomas and Anne Jamieson of the Toronto Enterprise Fund. For organizations and community groups interested in social enterprise, the introductory workshop will help you understand the difference between different types of social enterprises and explore the organizational characteristics that lead to successful implementation. We will also do an exercise to brainstorm business ideas that might be a good fit for your organization and explore the extent to which your organisation is ready to start a social enterprise. You will come away from this workshop with information about the development path for social enterprises and the Toronto Enterprise Fund’s Business Plan Competition’s eligibility criteria and application requirements.
