Harvard Social Enterprise Conference :: February 27 - 28, 2010

OK, this post was in draft status for a bit too long - the deadline for Pitch for Change has passed - but if you attend the Harvard Social Enterprise Conference then check it out:)

Pitch for Change is an "elevator pitch" competition that is open to individuals and teams (at least one team member must be a current graduate student) with an idea for a new social enterprise venture. Entrants need only submit a short 500 word proposal for initial consideration and be prepared to pitch their ideas to a panel of judges during the 2010 Harvard Social Enterprise Conference (Feb 27-28 in Cambridge, MA) if selected as a semi-finalist. Entries were due on January 30th, 2010.
