London Social Ventures: Social ventures as a pathway to research impact
This one-hour workshop from London Social Ventures (LSV) offers a light-touch introduction to purpose-driven entrepreneurship and how social ventures can be a powerful vehicle for turning research into impact.
You’ll explore how social ventures can turn research into real-world impact, gain practical tools to start shaping early ideas, and hear examples from across the sector.
Whether you're curious about social venture or already have a concept in mind, this session will help you take a first step—and connect with others across King’s College, London who are exploring similar paths.
This session is for academics, researchers and doctoral students curious about social venture as a way to create impact from research, whether or not they already have an idea in mind. Professional services staff who support research and impact are also welcome.
Refreshments will be served as part of this event. Please notify us of any dietary requirements via the booking form as you register here.
