Lessons on Social Investing with Acumen Global Fellows
Every year, Acumen trains and sends 10 Global Fellows to work with Acumen social enterprises for 10 months across energy, healthcare, agriculture, water and education. Join us for a panel discussion on their experiences and insights on what it takes to solve problems of poverty and what it takes to build viable social businesses serving the poor. Acumen’s mission is to change the way the world tackles poverty by investing in companies, leaders and the spread of ideas. Since 2001, they’ve invested $86M in 77 companies and trained 254 Fellows across the world.
