SPEnD: New social enterprises at Algonquin College in 2025

As we approach the final phase of the Social Innovation Lab’s SPEnD research initiative, we plan to launch new student-led social enterprises at Algonquin College in 2025. These social enterprises seek to address the needs of the Algonquin College community while empowering the next generation of business leaders.

Guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, our social enterprises are shaped by insights gained from the “Xplore Impact” tool, an interactive map designed by SPEnD students. This tool allows us draw inspiration from global social entrepreneurship models and discover how we can apply these solutions in our own community.

This fall, we’ve brainstormed, conducted exploratory research, and engaged with students and community partners to uncover meaningful ways to address the needs of the Algonquin College community. We’re excited to share our findings at the Applied Research Showcase, hear your feedback, and move forward with launching these social enterprises in 2025!
