On May 5th, 2010 SiG@Waterloo invited Ric Young to come speak to a crowd gathered at the Waterloo Regional Children's Museum in downtown Kitchener.

Ric highlighted various real-world examples of large-scale, social change initiatives throughout the world and addressed some fundamental questions about their impact on society and their ability to create sustainable, positive changes on society.

Ric is the founder and president of E.Y.E. | The Social Projects Studio™- a company dedicated to the creation and development of breakthrough social change initiatives.

Ric's talk is part of SiG@Waterloo's "Innovators in Action" Speaker Series which explores the application of social innovation to a number of specific sectors and issues.
