Future of Young Social Enterprise
Event description
As the future of work becomes increasingly entrepreneurial, young people are embracing the disruption of markets to create meaningful change through social entrepreneurship. But what's life like for a young social entrepreneur? How can young people thrive in the sector? And what does the next decade of conscientious innovation hold?
Join us for a very special launch of the new partnership between UTS and The Foundation for Young Australians (FYA) and its social enterprise YLab.
Featuring a panel discussion on the future of young social enterprise, we’ll be hearing from experts, leaders and young people who have walked the walk reflect on the excitement, challenges, and importance of fusing business and purpose.
