Social Innovation Forum
Join over 350 businesspeople, philanthropists, and community leaders to hear eight of greater Boston’s most innovative nonprofits pitch their solutions to our community’s toughest social issues. The Social Innovation Forum’s 13th annual Social Innovator Showcase, modeled after a venture capital forum, will highlight our eight 2016 Social Innovators for potential investors and spark conversations about the best approaches to develop and spread innovation.
This event is intended for those interested in supporting the 2016 Social Innovator cohort as potential funders, mentors, or connectors. Purchase your tickets today.
