About

This year is the first ever SHINE, a new kind of event that offers a truly entrepreneurial environment to connect, inform and inspire people interested in social change.

SHINE is an ‘Un’Conference, which means that you provide the content and participate in sessions run by your peers. 

SHINE is breaking down the old conventions - ‘expert’ panels, long plenaries, no time for questions, being talked at or even down to, and falling asleep at the back.

Ashoka
UnLtd
School for Social Entrepreneurs
The Hub
