Dates for Emerge 2012 just announced!  We'll see you in Oxford on 
27-28 October, 2012.  
Check back here soon for more details.  See below for feedback from the 2011 conference...

“What is really useful here is that you get an insider view not just an outlook on change. I’m studying architecture and doing a dissertation on social enterprise. I’m looking to incorporate some of the ideas about environment and sustainability in the future.” Samantha Gill

“I liked how much practical information there was, such as websites and twitter feeds. I came over from Australia to start my MA in development economics a couple of weeks ago and I want to be a social entrepreneur so I’ve been trying to build networks. Meeting people here has been great.” Nat Ware

“Jack Sim was inspirational. I want to follow in his footsteps, maybe using a more conventional route to earn money and then become a philanthropist. The talk reinforced the idea that you can have a crazy idea and if you have a passion and you think it can make an impact you should just go for it.” Chris Pruijsen

“I’ve just come out of the networks talk which had some great practical ideas and insights. I learnt a lot about building networks at events like this to create opportunities.” Jay

“The impact investment talk gave the organisational specific. It gave me an idea of the future of investment and where it is going. As a masters student of development economics, I found this really useful” Kiram

“I think it is great that such inspiring people are so approachable. We usually put them on a pedestal, but meeting in a context like this motivates me to work with others to make change.” Melissa
