The Trico Charitable Foundation presented the Social EnterPrize, where two Canadian social enterprises received $100,000 each for demonstrating best practices, impact and innovation in Doing Business Differently.

These recipients were joined by two past recipients – Potluck Café and Catering and Mission Possible – for a panel conversation about alignment, the ‘secret sauce’ behind their success. The discussion highlighted the power of aligning the three EconoUs2017 themes, and aligning concepts that are too often thought of as mutually exclusive: using strong business models while also strategically utilizing grants, being a lead organization while also embracing community partnerships, and addressing the immediate needs of those in poverty while also seeking systemic change.
