NUM Social Innovation Lab Details
The NUM Social Innovation Lab is part of the EU funded South-East Asian Social Innovation Network (SEASIN) with additional support being provided by SMART Axiata. The Social Innovation Lab serves as both a space for seminars and interactive workshops on topics related to social innovation and entrepreneurship and also as an incubator to help develop and launch new social ventures. While the primary target is university students, the NUM Social Innovation Lab is also open to the wider social enterprise community. A maker space will also be available within the Social Innovation Lab so that students and outside community members can work to develop physical prototypes via the use of 3D printers. The NUM Social Innovation Lab will also serve as the main training venue for the National Business Model Competition which is an annual entrepreneurship competition open to all university students in Cambodia and focusing on startup ideas related to the following 5 sectors: Technology, Medical / Health Care, Education, Agriculture and General Business. The National Business Model Competition is also affiliated with the regional Mekong Challenge, which was launched in 2006 in partnership with the international consulting firm McKinsey & Company, and also the International Business Model Competition in the U.S.
