The sixth annual Social Impact Challenge will take place in Flint, and is presented as a partnership between U-M’s Ross School of Business’ Center for Social Impact and UM-Flint’s Office of University Outreach.
As Flint looks toward a post-water-crisis future, the 2017 Social Impact Challenge will examine how to advance entrepreneurship efforts in Flint to revive economic development in neighborhood centers and city corridors.
In addition to the partnership between the two U-M campuses, teams will be working with the city of Flint, the Flint & Genesee Chamber of Commerce and Skypoint Ventures, a venture capital and real estate company with strong social impact ties.
