Join us for our June 2018 Networking Event, to be held between 6-8pm on Thursday 21 June at the Oxford Centre for Innovation building, next to Oxford Castle.
This will be a panel session and open discussion with local experts on funding of social enterprises and ethical investing. The evening will be a great way to engage with local Fellows and understand more about what makes a fundable project.
Panel
