We are in the midst of challenging times. The recent financial crisis was the last straw in demonstrating the inherent dangers of a ruthlessly profit-making business. Can we do well and do good? Will you take the lead and realise your vision of a better world?
If you would like to fuse business and social change, the Rotary Youth Social Entrepreneurship Challenge (RYSEC) is your chance to start making an impact.
Check out the various Awards and Eligibility criteria.
Idea Launchpad
You have an idea, but nothing else. You are obsessed about it, and are desperate for feedback. Submit your idea, and Idea Launchpad will provide the input and seed funding that you need, as well as immerse you straight into the local social enterprise community by connecting you with like-minded individuals who are also out to save the world.
Project Accelerator
You are a budding social entrepreneur who has an idea and are ready to get started. Or you may even have started already. Regardless, you are looking for that ‘something’ to take your venture to the next level. Submit a full business plan to Project Accelerator and you can look forward to meeting people who have been-there-and-done-that. And even getting seed funding to go-there-and-do-it yourself.
Apply online now by 6 Aug!
