About the Event
impACT Beirut will launch its second event on Saturday, October 12 in Bathish Auditorium at American University of Beirut (AUB), in partnership with cewas Middle East, the Rotary Clubs of Willisau, Baabda, Saida and Tripoli Cosmopolis, and The Entrepreneurship Club (eClub).
Join us at this free event for a day of Power Talks and discussion rounds by high-profile and engaging speakers who will highlight the nuances of social start-up success, as well as a competition and exhibition of start-ups focused on solving environmental challenges.
Students, entrepreneurs, ecosystem stakeholders, and others interested in entrepreneurship and environmental issues are welcome to attend. Those who attend will come away with better knowledge, resources, and networks to create change and work for social justice and sustainability.
Born in Afghanistan, impACT invites social entrepreneurs and established actors worldwide to gain insights, extend networks, and get inspired through events that connect the local start-up ecosystem.
