Social Entrepreneurship

Valuing the social as well as the profit potential of business

The School has an initiative that promote social entrepreneurship in our student, faculty and alumni communities:

The Global Social Venture (GSVC) Competition

Global Social Venture (GSVC) Competition

The competition is a joint venture between the Haas School of Business at the University of California - Berkeley, Columbia Business School and London Business School. Aimed at a global audience, the partnership brings together business schools across the world to support the creation of social ventures. 

Each year, teams from around the world compete for over $70,000 in cash and travel prizes. The Grand Prize of $25,000 will be awarded to the plan that achieves the best blend of economic and social returns. 

GSVC at London Business School is sponsored by Apax Partners.
