The Good Entrepreneur Festival 2021

The Good Entrepreneur Festival provides business and startup know-how to all those wanting to find out more about the process of building a good business, one that serves the people, the planet and also makes a profit. Learn about social and environmental impact and how entrepreneurs are using their startups as a tool to make the world a better place.

Delivered online by entrepreneurial experts every Tuesday from February 2nd to March 2nd 6.30pm until 7.30pm, these engaging seminars provide hands-on tips and advice you can actually apply to your own social enterprise or business. Plenty of time for questions and answers too!

We have invited the brilliant Esme Verity (Venture Scout at Ada Ventures, London Chapter Lead at Zebras Unite and Founder of Atmos). Liz Choonara who heads up Entrepreneurship in Crisis and Lissa Gillott, Head of Funding and Support at Virgin StartUp, to speak about how to fund your planet changing, world saving organisation and what support there is to help you along and get resourced to achieve your mission. She'll run through the various funding options.
