We’re creating a new legacy built by community, rooted in our values, and guided by our vision.
WHO ARE WE?
Social Venture Network is a transformational community of entrepreneurs, investors, and visionaries.
Founded in 1987, SVN is a community of leaders who share a commitment to building a just and sustainable world through business. The relationships and initiatives born within their network have ranged from lasting friendships to investment deals to founding organizations.
Read the 2024 RISE Report
RISE was an un-conference that gathered 70 members of the SVN community across three different venues in Oakland, California, from May 28 – June 1, 2024.
This report serves as an initial overview of what arose over those three days. Our gathering was marked by deep reflection, rigorous inquiry, and expansive imagination. The insights and proposals that emerged are currently being prepared for a more detailed follow-up survey. This forthcoming survey will soon be shared across our wider network, inviting your invaluable feedback.
Sign Up for Peer Circles!
As change makers, consultants, and social venture pioneers, it is sometimes hard to stay the course with the important work we do when so often we feel alone and under-resourced. Peer Circles are designed to help you dream bigger and stay the course. Discover a rare haven with our peer circles, where you can engage in open discussions on topics that are off-limits elsewhere. Learn more about our Peer Circle Program and apply below.
