Social Enterprise at Goizueta

April 6th, 2009 Stephen Satterfield Posted in ISAW EVENTS, WINE POLITICS |

A few weeks ago, PJ and I had the opportunity to speak to a group of MBA students at Emory’s Goizueta Business School. The students were enrolled in a Social Enterprise class, and it turns out that their professor Peter Roberts happens to be a big wine enthusiast (and researcher), so it turned out to be a fruitful afternoon. In fact, there was so much synergy around our visit that we returned last week for a brilliant symposium on Global Development and Health, followed by a dinner and panel by the Goizueta Microfinance Club.

In the coming weeks, we’ll heading back to Goizueta for the inaugural Mini Executive Program entitled “Developing and Refining Nonprofit Strategy” scheduled for May 5-6, 2009. This program, organized by Professor Roberts, will feature some of the top professors at Goizueta, and will undoubtedly be a remarkable leaning opportunity for us. We are very honored to have been invited, and will share details upon completion.
