Likely the most exciting, encouraging and positive initiatives happening in our Province today are through Manitoba’s social enterprises, which are leading examples of using business practices to address collective issues. Learn from our experienced panelists about some of our social enterprise initiatives that are working at reducing poverty while, at the same time, growing the labour force. Social enterprises create jobs, train workers and provide opportunities to those who otherwise might not have been given a chance. You will be inspired as social enterprise changes lives, families and communities.
