For Net Impact Los Angeles‘ inaugural StartUp Spotlight, we’ll hear from Enrou, an online marketplace connecting artisans in developing communities with impact-oriented consumers around the world. Enrou has partnered with 31 cause-driven brands globally and won a $400,000 prize from the Forbes Pressure Cooker competition in 2014. Come to General Assembly to learn about this incredible startup rejecting the notion that social missions and profit cannot coexist in the market today.
Featuring Jessica Willison, one of the cofounders, the discussion will cover her journey into social entrepreneurship and the lessons learned in starting her own company. A fireside chat led by Net Impact Los Angeles will also provide insight to attendees on how to take initiatives to fruition while maintaining core business practices. Networking will occur before and after the event, with food and drinks provided by Net Impact and General Assembly.
