Every month we present an inspiring and successful guest speaker who is working in alignment with the UN Sustainable Global Goals and there is also plenty of time for high level networking before and after the presentation.
Are you looking for additional contacts, support, team members, local or international opportunities?
Then this is the place to get connected! And if we don't find what you are looking for, we can help you tap into our local and global communities for additional support.
Our goal is to inspire, motivate and empower you as a social entrepreneur to make a living out of your passion and a difference on a local and international level.
The Atlanta Entrepreneur Social is one of 70+ cities around the world who meet monthly and are part of the International Entrepreneurs Institute, which is the leading social entrepreneur education group.
All ticket prices go towards funding these events and contributing to B1G1 (Buy 1 Give 1) - a global business giving initiative on a mission to create a world full of giving.
What are Entrepreneur Socials?
Entrepreneur Socials are monthly networking events for entrepreneurs to engage and connect with purpose-driven individuals who value collaboration and problem-solving. Our mission is to help achieve the United Nations Global Goals by creating a space for impact-driven entrepreneurs to connect to the right knowledge, network and opportunities.
Entrepreneur Social Speakers are social entrepreneurs who are impact driven and are doing something to make a difference in the world. They have found a way to create ongoing flow towards profit and purpose. They also have a story worth telling because they are impacting one or more of the 17 Global Goals and they are on an entrepreneurial journey to make this happen.
The event is for anyone who is interested in entrepreneurship and social impact and would like to network in a relaxed social environment with other locally grown professionals and business owners, to share success stories, challenges faced and discuss the strategies that will propel us forward.
