Turning Great Ideas into Social Impact!

Join us for a day of inspiration, practical advice and expert guidance as we explore how to start a social enterprise.

Have an idea that could make a difference in your community?
Want to create a business that delivers both social impact and financial sustainability?

This engaging event will guide you through the key steps involved in turning an idea into a viable social enterprise. Hear from experts including Leigh Wharton from Bubble Enterprises and Nickala Torkington from Flourish who will share insights on business planning, choosing the right legal structure, securing funding, and accessing support to help your venture succeed.

You’ll also have the opportunity to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and change-makers, building valuable relationships and discovering new opportunities for collaboration. Whether you’re just beginning to explore an idea or already working on a project, you’ll leave with greater knowledge, practical tools, and the confidence to take your next steps.
