Johns Hopkins Social Enterprise Bootcamp

Description

Current Johns Hopkins students at the School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) and Carey Business School enrolled in ongoing degree programs are invited to attend the Social Enterprise Bootcamp Fall 2021, a one-day intensive program focusing on skills essential for launching and leading a community project, non-profit, or mission-driven business. The bootcamp is presented by the SAIS Social Enterprise Accelerator, Co-curricular and Experiential Learning Office and Johns Hopkins Social Innovation Lab.

As part of the Social Enterprise Bootcamp, students are invited to participate in a Pitch Your Idea competitive event, which offers students a platform to present their novel ideas or emerging projects to a panel of social innovators. Pitches will be evaluated based on their emotional connection, credibility, documentation, clear solution, succinct description, and the ask. The top three pitches will be awarded prizes.

The number of participants will be capped at 30, with 20 seats reserved for SAIS students and 10 reserved for Carey Business School students. Preference will be given to participants coming with an existing idea or project that they are looking to grow.
