The emerging field of social business comes against the backdrop of unleashing human ingenuity in which the market-driven approach for solving social problem (s) in health, education, environment etc stands as the primary objective. In this course, we will develop the skills and perspective that enable you to identify and understand a social problem, to generate creative ideas to address it, and to build a realistic social business plan.

The focus in the class shifts from the theoretical understanding of social business to the practical approach of planning, organising, leading and monitoring a social business. You will explore case studies, scenarios and real-time experiences from the largest Global academic and professional network of social business (i.e. Noble Laureate Professor Yunus Social business in 16 countries, 31 universities, 12 academic programs) and meet successful social business entrepreneurs to move your social business plan to market.
