The first stop we make is Hanyang University. They are the first university in Asia to offer Social Innovation as a major in their curriculum. Recently, they became the first Ashoka U Changemaker Campus in East Asia.

Below shows the campus HIT plaque and Startup Town.

Professor Shin, who is the major driver in Hangyang University's Social Innovation education, gave us a brief introduction on student initiatives and the support the University has given to them.

By coincidence, we are joined by a group from Cologne Business School (Germany) at Hangyang. We met again the next few days by coincidence again.

Professor Shin started off with defining Social Innovation through Microfinancing and UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SGDs), then went through how Hanyang support their students.

Next up is Mr. Jae Myung Lee, a student leader of the Hanyang Social Innovation Lab, describing a project Artist Tak they have done to help a disabled artist to sell online.

The uniqueness of Inventureship is that students start off with a simple 'mission assignment' from Professor Shin, and then branch out to learn the essential skillsets of setting up a real digital agency. No written exams needed.
