Popped By Chicago!

 

The second and final action project of Social Entrepreneurship. This one was definitely a very difficult one. Starting from the beginning, we started looking at business models. What type of company was it, How are they taxed, where are they getting their funding, what is their goal? From there we started to talk about mission and vision statements. After that section of the course, we talked to Sharon Cho who helps businesses in their diversity, equity, and inclusion training. She taught us that diversity, equity, and inclusion(DEI) are important for understanding your market and effectively incorporating economic and statistical feedback. After learning where all the cogs went, it was time for us to make gears of our own. This project asks us to effectively create a business plan for a social enterprise that works to solve a problem of our choosing. You can find mine below.
