What do they have in common?

They address challenges of the 21st century-Food, Energy and Healthcare

 

FOODDid you know? Small farms produce far more per acre or hectare than large farms.

“Feeding 9 billion people” panel in the SOCIAL ENTERPRISE TRACK features Dorothy Suput, Executive Director, ‘The Carrot Project’, a non-profit organization dedicated to creating financing solutions for small- and midsized farms, limited-resource farms, and those using ecologically sound practices.

At the TieCon East held on Friday, May 22, 2:45 PM – 4:00 PM

Listen to the panelists under the Social Enterprise Panel with the help of a moderator will articulate the macro issues facing food systems, independent of policy machinations and their implications for both developing and developed world.

Entrepreneurial opportunities can be technological, SME type, or unique business linked financial models.
