Alastair Wilson, Chief Executive of the School for Social Entrepreneurs (UK).

Alastair will talk about stewarding SSE as a social enterprise, its experience with social franchising as a business model, and kick off a wider discussion about building successful social innovations and enterprise here in Adelaide and across Australia. He is keen to share lessons learned and start a useful discussion which will hopefully give participants some new ideas for their own projects.
