About this event

Has the pandemic made you think about living a more purposeful life? Do you have great ideas for social change but not sure where to begin?
Let me help get you started.

Join social entrepreneur Orla Ryan as we take a closer look at the social problem she set out to solve! Orla will share with you how some great solutions were dismissed because of local social norms. Map the customer journey from awareness through to distribution and sales of her work in supplying new ladies lingerie to the women of Haiti. Orla will also share how her team measured success, social and economic, and condense: a ‘get to know better’ on our competition and key stakeholders. You will find out what is included in eCommerce as part of the solution, with a mobile App store and lastly, how she raised funding and the importance of not applying a sticking-plaster to a social problem we may not truly understand.

Takeaways

  • A framework to start mapping out the social problem
  • Build resilience to the inevitable challenges
  • Inspired to get up and out and bring your ideas for social change to life
