CCDA Conference Attendees, you’re invited! Join Mosaic Christian Community Development Association, Neighborhood Economics, and Jubilee Impact Fund for a pre-conference social entrepreneurship impact event. Registration is open through October 1, 2023.
Discover the power of social entrepreneurship and how it drives economic revitalization in challenged communities. Our pre-conference event, in collaboration with Mosaic Christian Community Development Association, Neighborhood Economics, and Jubilee Impact Fund, focuses on creating entrepreneurial ecosystems.
These ecosystems bring together financial institutions, businesses, corporations, local chambers, municipalities, and community organizations to support underrepresented and under-resourced entrepreneurs. They serve as thriving hubs of partnerships, programs, and opportunities, fostering economic growth in distressed communities.
At this event, you’ll gain invaluable insights into the significance of social entrepreneurship in community revitalization. Learn how to build entrepreneurial ecosystems by engaging various stakeholders, including business, corporate, financial institutions, government, church, and community leaders. Discover the art of collaborating with corporate and community partners, and explore the vital role of impact investing in the success of social entrepreneurs.
Join us and become a catalyst for sustainable community development through social entrepreneurship!
