The Buerk Center at the UW Foster School of Business promotes entrepreneurship to students across campus. Their competition venue is a great opportunity for you as social work students to promote social and environmental justice by taking an idea you have and making it happen through social entrepreneurship. The business plan process gives you the skills that can take your idea to application.
It’s not all about business. Every good business plan needs a social and environmental footprint check and balance. This is where social work meets engineering, public health, biology, chemistry, computer science, and business.
It is now that time of year when students across campus are forming teams to participate in the spring UW Business Plan Competition. This is where you bring your ideas and meet others who may have similar ones to create an entrepreneurial team. Below is a listing of dates for the Team Formation Nights.
