Stu Clark Webinar: From the Basics to Myth-Busting to Maximizing Impact

“Social Entrepreneurship: From the Basics to Myth-Busting to Maximizing Impact” with Daniel Overall and Brittni Kerluke is built for students who want to use business to change the world—for real, not just in theory.

This session breaks down what social entrepreneurship actually is, clears up the biggest myths, and shows how real business models, not just good intentions, create lasting impact. You’ll see how purpose and profit work together, not against each other.

This isn’t just opinion or theory. The insights shared in this session are grounded in 15 years of real-world work by the Trico Foundation, including:

• A review of 100+ leading academic papers

• 120+ attitude surveys

• A two-year field study tracking and training 10 active social enterprises with monthly data collection

The result? Clear evidence that common misperceptions are holding social entrepreneurs back, and that there is an emerging formula for maximizing real-world impact.

This webinar also introduces a 6–8 week guided online program that follows later, where selected participants will take an idea and develop it into a real social enterprise. The program ends with a pitch competition and $2,500 in cash prizes, giving you a chance to move from curiosity to execution.

If you care about impact, innovation, sustainability, and real-world action - this is your orientation point.
