Collaboration was one of the words that echoed throughout the 13-hour-long event, which was separated into three-time blocks that allowed participants all over the world to engage despite the time zone differences. The event was another reminder of the critical role social enterprises play in driving systematic change. We were able to see more and more real-life examples of how social enterprises are often the first to respond to crises, address conflicts, create green jobs, and build resilient communities, all while putting the people and the planet.
