Impact Session

🔸 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗨𝗦 🔸
Academics For Development is a global student organization founded on social entrepreneurship. Every year we organize hands-on projects across the world and on-campus events. Through these projects and events, we strive to give students the opportunity to enrich themselves and have durable social impact.

But what the heck is social entrepreneurship?! How can 1 person have such an impact? And what does that even mean, durable social impact?

🔸 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗡𝗧🔸
During this 1 hour during event, we want to inspire you and clarify…
… How you, as a student, can have real impact through social entrepreneurship
… What it means to be part of AFD

For the first part we therefore invited two inspiring speakers who will each tell you a story on how they got in touch with social entrepreneurship
→ Speaker 1: Laurens De Poorter is an MBA Candidate at Harvard Business School and the co-founder of TeleCorona and AFD. He will tell the story on how he encountered social entrepreneurship for the first time.

→ Speaker 2: Diane Delava is an expert on the topic of social entrepreneurship and co-founder of Mattrvest, an inclusive impact investment firm. She will tell you the story on how she was able to pull off her start-up.

Finally, we will provide you with some information on what it means to be part of our international student organization. We will represent the different branches from all across the world, our mission and the different functions involved. Time is foreseen for you to ask all your questions regarding the organization and the stories of our speakers.
