Pitch sessions and startup challenge
If you are ready to pitch in front of a jury of advisors and investors, ISUM will be your opportunity to test and receive immediate feedback.  Generally structured as a 5 minute pitch and 10 minutes of questions & answers, each ISUM includes local best practices.

Workshops and panel discussions
You will learn how to sort through new ideas from fellow entrepreneurs, market to target customers, write an effective business plan, build and manage your team, create partnership agreements, and raise funds with business angels and/or VCs.

Exchange of experience among an international mix of startup founders
There will be several opportunities to meet entrepreneurs and investors throughout the session.  Sharing ideas, successes and challenges may identify an idea that was successful in one country, and may be successful in your own country.

ISUM gives priority for registration to AIESECers and AIESEC alumni entrepreneurs but it is an open meeting: local entrepreneurs who are not AIESECers could bring attention to their startup as well, notably if they want their startup to grow internationally.

Registration starts now.  Please proceed to http://isumanila2015.com/ to do registration and to get more information about the conference.  For more news updates, please proceed to

As annual event since 2008, the Summit had been very well attended with about 1,200 participants from Mainland China, Taiwan, Macao, Singapore, Thailand and other countries in the past four years. The event continued to ‘convert the unconvertible’ and successfully aroused attention from various sectors in the region.

The tentative theme of 2015 Summit is “Reframing+” and will mainly be in the form of a 2-day symposium plus workshops, visitations and other events. Following the successful experiences since 2008, the organizers would like to enhance community engagement to social innovation and continue to give emphasis on the importance of cross sector partnership. This year, the summit would focus on further enhancing participation of government officials in the region in developing social enterprises. The organizer believes that the Summit will be another invaluable opportunity to bring together social enterprises, government officials, business leaders, NGOs, academics, students and interested individuals from this region to discuss social entrepreneurship.
