About the Seminar

Professor Kickul’s talk will provide a new perspective in understanding how best to segment and manage both the supply of and demand for capital by social ventures pursing a hybrid model of economic, social, and/or environmental value. She will focus on how different types of social investors screen and invest, to maximize their social gains, financial returns, or both.

This information can then be utilized to design strategies for social entrepreneurs seeking equity funding, tailored to how investors select and ultimately choose to invest in social firms — selection and choices that can impart invaluable information and have significant implications on how social entrepreneurs tactically pursue such funding for the development and continued growth, innovation, and scalability of their ventures.
