Talking about social entrepreneurship together with Coworking Maribor!

Social entrepreneurship is reaching an increasingly higher standing in the world, as it doesn’t only create new jobs, contribute to economic growth and provide a more diverse offer on the market, but also considers higher moral standards of business, reinvests profits and creates mostly social value for the good of the society. Social ideas are also usually the ones that spread the fastest in the form of movements and motivations for changing the world for the better. All these are important facts that will be covered at the PODIM 2015 Conference as part of the roundtable on social entrepreneurship.

Step into the world of social entrepreneurship with Coworking Maribor

The roundtable on social entrepreneurship at the PODIM 2015 Conference was made possible by Coworking Maribor, which we are proudly collaborating with.

Coworking Maribor (CWMB) is a place, community, positive energy where ideas come true. Coworking Maribor is co-created by young entrepreneurs who are still polishing their ideas and preparing ventures. Experienced entrepreneurs who wish to share their experience are also a part of Coworking Maribor. CWMB is a place where entrepreneurial individuals who wish to co-create a propulsive environment can meet up and polish their ideas. It also organises seminars, workshops, lectures and consultations for strengthening skills and acquiring new knowledge for business successes. CWMB is thus a place of goal-oriented wishes, capabilities and a lot of motivation as well as a desire for constantly inducing changes in the community.
