MSEA & MMU Social Enterprise Showcase

Join us for an engaging celebration of student innovation and social impact, bringing together students, social enterprises, and partners from across the Manchester Social Economy Alliance (MSEA).

The event will open with a welcome address from the Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Education, setting the stage for an inspiring showcase of collaborative projects. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore a dynamic exhibition where students present their work alongside their partner social enterprises. Each project will feature a short film and poster highlighting the real-world impact of their collaboration.

Following the showcase, participants—including students, social enterprises, and MSEA members—will be invited to vote for the project they believe has delivered the greatest impact. The shortlisted films will then be screened in the main lecture theatre, offering a chance to experience these powerful stories in full.

The event will conclude with the announcement of the winning project. The winning team will receive vouchers in recognition of their achievement, and their success will also be celebrated at the students’ graduation ceremony in July.

Lunch and networking time included.
