Every year, in December, Venture Café recognizes and celebrates entrepreneurs and companies that consider profit and impact equally important. On December 3, we will convene the innovators who launch, run, fund, and support social enterprises that work to eradicate the world’s toughest problems. Learn about the causes that are predicted to get the most funding next year, meet local entrepreneurs who have managed to grow successful ventures during a global pandemic, and stay to shop at the Innovation Studio’s Winter Market.
