This list of fellow-connected social enterprises shows the ways in which fellowships can work to create a breadth of networks in various industries. Fellowships have been an important way in the social entrepreneurship community for not simply supporting individuals and their start-up organizations but further, supporting outstanding individuals. For instance, those who are selected to become a part of Echoing Green or the Unreasonable Institute, become known in their own right and can use their selection as a stamp -- almost like an award.
From legal advice for farmers to worksite info forums, these fellow-connected social enterprises show how short and long-term support helps along leadership training and professional experience. See what has come and what can come out of these types of titles and development programs.
