Four Social Entrepreneurship Institute registrants will be selected to present at the event, and each will give a 5-minute presentation about their organization, current and expected impact, current challenges, and questions for the expert speakers. The presenters will then engage in a conversation with the keynote speakers and with the other expert speakers, <http://www.uniteforsight.org/institute/schedule-2016> on the Shubert Theater stage and in front of the conference audience. The expert speakers will answer questions and offer guidance and advice. The entire audience will then have an opportunity to ask questions of the presenters and the expert speakers. In addition to offering a unique opportunity for the four selected presenters, the Social Entrepreneurship Institute audience will gain extensive insight from the expert speakers about navigating the challenges and complexities of real issues being experienced by the innovators in the audience.
