CSFE is excited to welcome Dr. Siri Terjersen on September 10th, 2018, as she presents \u201cSocial Entrepreneurship Without Borders.\u201d The event, which is free and open to the public, is the first installment of the Fall 2018 Free Enterprise Speaker Series held at Western Carolina University.<\/p>\n
During her presentation, Dr. Terjesen will review findings from the two largest studies of cross-country social entrepreneurship activity, which she co-directed. She will explore patterns of activities in more than 60 countries around the world with a special focus on the United States.
