Social Entrepreneurship List
We are a directory / social network for social entrepreneurs (i.e., entrepreneurs that solve social and environmental problems) and people that want to work with those social entrepreneurs. There are 4 'customer segments' that we are trying to include in this directory: 1) the entrepreneurs, 2) organizational sponsors - this refers to anybody that is looking to provide resources to those entrepreneurs such as investors or business incubators that cater to those types of entrepreneurs, 3) people looking for jobs with social enterprises, and 4) academic researchers that study social enterprises
We are trying to create something very similar to Angel List but for social entrepreneurs. However, the new angel.co site has changed; we prefer the old design, which you can see on archive.org: https://web.archive.org/web/2015020…/angel.co/
The site should convey a sense of concern for the world and the environment.
1) Homepage: We want a featured image with description of the site, a set of featured social enterprises with a call to action, a set of featured 'organizational sponsors' with a call to action, a set of featured academic researchers with a call to action, a call to action for job seekers interested in positions with social enterprises, and a footer. The homepage might resemble https://web.archive.org/web/2015020…syndicates
2) Profile page for social enterprises: (Similar to https://angel.co/opendoor) We want to capture and display the following information for each social enterprise--
