Money Talks: Funding Diverse School Founders

Mar 5, 2019

4:00pm – 6:00pm CT

Should a school founder come from the local community or can they be adopted in? Should founders be discovered or developed early on? What is the best way to ensure a diverse pipeline? Not sure? We don’t always agree either. Join a workshop with three different school founder incubators from across the country to learn about the assumptions and decisions we’ve made, and make some of your own as you step into our shoes and evaluate, select, and defend your choice for a (fictional) school founder.
