Ateneo and DLSU launch “The Collective Good 2025” to advance inclusive social entrepreneurship
18 Jun 2025
In a demonstration of inter-university collaboration, the Ateneo Center for Social Entrepreneurship (ACSEnt) and the Lasallian Social Enterprise for Economic Development (LSEED) Center have officially launched The Collective Good 2025, a two-part Social Entrepreneurship Talk (SE Talks) series that aims to deepen learning, build networks, and co-create inclusive futures for social entrepreneurship in the Philippines.
This year’s SE Talks will unfold in two sessions: the first on 2–3 July 2025, at De La Salle University, and the culminating event on 26–27 November 2025, at Ateneo de Manila University. The workshop series offers changemakers—social entrepreneurs, educators, advocates, students, and researchers—an opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue, knowledge exchange, and collaborative problem-solving.
Grounded in the shared mission of ACSEnt and LSEED to foster social innovation and development, The Collective Good 2025 builds on both centers' legacies of supporting grassroots enterprises and inclusive economic models. Participants will explore topics such as ethical enterprise building, sustainable business models, community engagement, and gender-inclusive financing.
Interested participants may register until 20 June 2025, via this link or by scanning the QR code on official announcements.
