A Loss for Our Community

The Renewal team was deeply troubled to learn about the unfortunate death of Ben Banky, CEO of Tallgrass Distribution.

Looking Forward to SVI Hollyhock and the Hot Tub!

In three short months we’ll head to back to Cortes Island to host the 13th Annual Social Venture Institute at Hollyhock. This will be my fourth trek to the island and I am eager to return for the delicious organic food and excellent company of SVI'ers.

Agenda

True Confessions: Attendees are given the opportunity to hear from leading entrepreneurs who will share their trials, tribulations and triumphs in creating socially responsible businesses. These personal and intimate “confessions” are instrumental learning moments around the challenges and successes of building businesses focused on a triple (double) bottom line.

Case Studies: Participants get direct feedback on their current business challenges from a faculty of successful socially responsible enterprise leaders. These sessions offer practical and sound advice not only from a panel of experts but from peers in the audience as well.

Business Problem Solving Sessions: Impromptu small group gatherings focused on specific business problems identified on the spot. Past sessions include: fundraising, board development and marketing.

Workshops: Opportunity for participants to meet each other in small groups and network around a variety of issues and topics. Past topics include: Effective Leadership, Building a Powerful Brand and Media 101.

Roundtable Feedback Sessions: These highly interactive discussions promote problem-solving opportunities in a small group setting with like-minded leaders.

Marketplace of Ideas: Fast paced two-minute presentations where participants share inspiring news about their organizations, personal projects and initiatives.  If you are attending SVI and would like to sign up for Marketplace of Ideas, email svi (at) renewalpartners.com to reserver your place today.
