Announcing the SOCAP24 Agenda — Going Deeper: Catalyzing Systems Change!

Gaming The System: The Social Entrepreneur Experience

Catherine Connors Game The System

“Game The System: The (Social) Entrepreneurs’ Experience” is a live-interaction role playing game that exposes players to the unevenly distributed challenges, advantages and opportunities that diverse entrepreneurs face in funding and building their businesses.

Informed by real data and insights from diverse founder journeys, the game experience guides players across an uneven entrepreneurial playing field and has them work in groups to navigate challenges in the guise of different entrepreneur personas.

Players leave with deeper understanding of the systems that constrain entrepreneurship for many, as well as practical strategies for purposefully ‘gaming’ those systems in service of a more equitable playing field.
