What I Would Have Done Differently: Women Social Entrepreneurs Share Failures and Key Learnings
Teryll Hopper, NetSuite.org
While we all want to tout our successes, there is a lot that can be learned from failure. This is especially true for people who are preparing to launch a social enterprise, as they decide what approaches to take, where to invest limited resources, and where to look for help. In this session, women social entrepreneurs will share candidly about what they wish they knew when they were getting started and how it’s helped them get where they are today.
