Dallas Social Venture Partners is excited, no ecstatic, to announce our third Social Innovation Lunch Series. What started as a monthly First Friday luncheon has evolved into a community gathering of change-agents who want to engage differently in advancing “good” in our region. The series will take place the first half of 2012, kicking of in January.
What is Social Innovation really?
Social Innovation is a theme that is not always understood. But in fact, communities and organizations are working differently to address some of our toughest challenges. What are the cutting edge ideas and tools that philanthropists, foundations, nonprofit leaders, and corporations can use to be a part of this exciting new frontier in the social sector?
What will I learn?
This is a must-attend series of thoughtful leaders who already have advanced the conversation in our nation around socially innovative ideas. Those who attend will have access to cutting edge ideas on mobilizing action, resourcing and financing innovative ideas, harnessing technology, and freeing nonprofits from restraints.
Who Should Come?
Those who believe that North Texas is a thriving region with strong businesses and socially innovative nonprofits that are effective. We recommend those who want to give back to the community, business and corporate leaders who seek a positive social impact alongside economic development, civic leaders who want to think differently, non-profit leaders who are innovative and anyone else who believes in the serious business of "good."
What inspired this Speaker Series?
DSVP leaders get to bump into all sorts of thought leaders at conferences and through our network. Many of these speakers have been selected for a particular book or article they have written and the ideas that they carry. We will post more information and links to the pre-reading that is not necessary, but recommended if you want to be a social innovation aficionado.
Where is this happening and how do I buy the Series?
The beautiful Tower Club at Thanksgiving Tower is where this series will be held. And you can buy your series tickets here!
