Let’s get real! We know conferences are all about networking. We will ask you to network; NO, we will ask you to do more and dive into a rich, interactive workshop! At Soles4Souls and Street Business School, we believe in people’s power to unleash good in the world. We want to showcase our partnership and work, which has furthered both organization’s ability to impact poverty alleviation through entrepreneurship. The world has taught us the core principles relevant to entrepreneurs and people everywhere. We will share lessons on Belief, Partnership, and Inspiration, giving you concrete tools to amplify your work. Together, we can reach further and transform lives worldwide.
