Jakarta Social Entrepreneurship Conference "Social Economy 4.0: Innovation, Sustainability and Responsibility"
This year’s INSEAD Social Entrepreneurship Conference took place in Jakarta on 16 May 2012 focusing on the theme “Social Economy 4.0: Innovation, Sustainability and Responsibility". It was our first time in Asia and our largest, most far-reaching series of events to date.
The conference attracted nearly 300 participants from more than 20 countries in Asia, Europe, North and Latin America and the Middle East. It was surrounded by several days of additional activities including a student social venture competition, CEO Forum, Senior Executive Implementation Workshop, numerous site visits to local social entrepreneurs, and a reunion for graduates of the INSEAD Social Entrepreneurship Programme (ISEP).
To make these events possible and to promote ongoing social entrepreneurship growth in Indonesia, INSEAD joined with local partners, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), BINUS Business School, and Yayasan Cinta Anak Bangsa (YCAB Foundation).
To initiate the collaboration, Muhammad Ariono Margiono, Firdaus Alamsjah, and Ahmad Seichi Ramadhan of Binus carried out new research to identify the attitudes of “Senior Managers in Indonesia on Social Innovation” which was first reported at the CEO Forum.
From INSEAD’s side, Hans Wahl, prepared a discussion paper on “Social Economy 4.0” to serve as a platform to examine trends, assess needs and opportunities, and develop initiatives to address them within Indonesia and the region as a whole. A discussion paper was circulated in advance of the conference and has been placed on the INSEAD Social Entrepreneurship Blog to allow for the discussion that started in Jakarta to continue beyond the conference itself.
A Conference report will be avialable soon...
