Social Entrepreneurship: Creating Change
Oct 21st, 2009 | By Hazman Aziz | Category: EntreprenuershipIn this Tulane University program, David Bornstein, author of How to Change the World, J.B. Schramm, founder and CEO of College Summit and Susan Davis, chair of the Grameen Foundation USA, discuss the role of the social entrepreneur in addressing social issues.
These innovative people have found solutions to many problems by combining their social expertise with business acumen to create new organizations that are, as London School of Business Dean Laura Tyson describes them, ‘a new kind of business hero.’ The 2004 Burkenroad Symposium addresses the issue with three scholars who, having written extensively on the subject, share examples of how social entrepreneurs have changed the world.
