Presented by the Social Innovation and Investment Alliance (SIIA). Take a breather before winter break and connect with fellow SI3 students in an informal, low-pressure space. This gathering is a chance to decompress, socialize, and trade strategies as we all look ahead to the spring semester. Whether you want to share ideas, study together, or simply unwind with classmates, this meetup is designed to strengthen our community and support one another before the pace picks up again.
During the session, SIIA and partners across the NYU entrepreneurial ecosystem will also offer an introduction to the inaugural Wagner Social Impact Challenge launching in Spring 2026. The Challenge invites interdisciplinary teams from across NYU to propose bold, entrepreneurial solutions to social challenges. Participants can learn about the competition structure, timeline, and how to form or join a team. The Challenge will feature two eligibility tracks, a nonprofit pitch and a social enterprise pitch, with applications opening in January 2026. Winning teams will receive a cash prize and recognition on our social channels.
Light refreshments will be provided. Registration may be capped to encourage meaningful conversation, so please save your spot using the link below.
