10 May 2021 Events

This first edition of the SKEMA Ventures Summit was organised with strong support from different SKEMA teams: Marketing & Communications, Alumni and Fundraising, Transformation and Digital and, of course, SKEMA Ventures. The collective effort made it a success, with around 800 registrations, over 1,000 interactions and messages throughout the day, and over 200 contacts made via the virtual stands.

Students, entrepreneurs, committed business leaders, professors, and experts in social entrepreneurship talked with participants online (with a steady audience of over 300 people and nearly 600 at the peak time) about the progress made in achieving sustainable development goals and the best practices for creating and developing entrepreneurial projects with a sound impact.
