Then, Antonia Sajardo ofreció la conferencia “¿Qué significa emprender en economía social?”, en la que se abordaron las claves conceptuales y prácticas de este tipo de iniciativas empresariales. La moderación estuvo a cargo de Andrea Rey.
The conference continued with a panel discussion. The participants of this activity were Helga Figueroa, CEO of Koira Adiestramiento Canino, and Diego Albizu, secretary of Okambuva, who shared their trajectories in the field of entrepreneurship. This session was moderated by Antonia Sajardo.
