SECNA Disability Social Enterprise Meet and Greet
Dec

SECNA Disability Social Enterprise Meet and Greet

The Social Enterprise Council of NSW and ACT (SECNA) invites members to join us for a virtual Disability Social Enterprise Meet and Greet.

Why is SECNA hosting this event? SECNA is a sector-led peak body that represents the interests of social entrepreneurs and social enterprises across NSW & ACT. One of the reasons we exist is to engage and connect the social enterprise sector in NSW and ACT.

In the past we have run various communities of practice and with a growing membership and lean team, we are trialing a new format that gives members an opportunity to easily and efficiently introduce themselves and what they do to a large audience and find others in the disability space, because connecting and building relationships can make all the difference in the social enterprise journey. SECNA plans to host this style of event for a range of impact areas/focuses.
