San Diego Social Enterprise Venture Competition

With San Diego Social Venture Partners support, the Academies for Social Entrepreneurship and its Venture Competition was a great success. Fourteen nonprofit organizations participated in the program, developing a variety of earned income strategies which will expand their impact as well as their revenues. They received training through five workshops including a marketing session led by Partner John Burnett. Those who chose to “pitch” their venture to a panel of private and social investors, were matched with successful entrepreneurs including PartnersKaren Brailean, Patrick Duffy, and Duane Trombly for one-on-one mentoring.
