Social Entrepreneurship and Innovation Lab

"The course is about learning how to take an entrepreneurial perspective to bring new ideas to challenge nonprofits to be a little bit more business-like. I really like that because i think a lot of nonprofits could be more financially stable to be more successful."

Friend and collaborator of the SEI Lab, Paul Dinkins (WUSTL MBA 2018), is co-launching Wabbani, a social enterprise. Check out the Kickstarter for your chance to be a part of the story! From their website: "Wabbani LLC is a for-profit social enterprise that produces handmade, culturally-authentic home décor, personalizing IKEA products while fitting their exact specifications, and preserving cultures and habitats in marginalized communities... Our goal is to serve as a globa...l platform connecting remote/rural artisans with customers everywhere." Congratulations Paul and April! We're excited to see your impact flourish!

Our interdisciplinary teams of graduate students are tackling racial inequity in infant mortality. Come listen to their final pitches this Friday (April 6th) from 9-11am in Goldberg Formal Lounge.
