Knowledge Development

Activities in each of the three dynamic stages of Action, Awareness, and Absorption are carried out over two platforms: Knowledge Development and Enterprise Development.

Our Knowledge Development platform aims to increase the awareness and adoption of social enterprises by creating an environment that can engage people on the issues of social entrepreneurship. We aim to achieve this through three main programs:

Bilingual Social Enterprise Blog
Currently there are no platforms in Chinese that provide leading content on the issues of social entrepreneurship. We are working on launching a blog that will feature news, commentary, analysis, and resources on social enterprise both locally and internationally. We hope to use the blog as a means to build community of people interested in this field.
Case Study Program
There are very little known cases of social entrepreneurship in this region. The goal of this program is to showcase and analyze home grown cases of social enterprises.
