The Social Entrepreneurship Forum will highlight community organizations and Cal Poly clubs making a positive impact.
Everyone in attendance will get the chance to “invest” fake money into the organizations being showcased, and the team with the most money at the end of the night will win $500.
PEN Portion
The Change for Change Game
From 5 to 6 P.M., the P.E.N. (Pitches, Exhibits, Networking) portion of the forum will showcase three Cal Poly clubs and three local non-profits utilizing entrepreneurial business techniques to make a social impact. After engaging with each of these organizations, attendees will have the chance to “invest” in their favorite organizations. Following the panel discussion, to honor the efforts of these organizations, we will be giving away $500 to the club or company that had the most money invested in them.
