Innovation Marketplace
Immediately following the APTE Summit is the Innovation Marketplace. Similar to an involvement fair or an exposition event, the Innovation Marketplace is the interactive portion of the event where you can continue learning about social entrepreneurship in a relaxed setting. But this time you do the talking!
Start conversations with student organizations, professional organizations, social entrepreneurship-minded companies, the Biz Pitch Competition finalists, other attendees and even the APTE speakers. This is an extremely useful event to ask questions, get answers, get involved or simply expand your network. This event exists solely to channel your inspiration and, thus, the Innovation Marketplace should be the impetus to your action.
