When it comes to growth and development of social enterprises Great Britain is probably one of the worlds hot spots. This applies both in relation to political and the government’s interest in the field and in relation to the activities initiated by various actors to support social enterprises. This concerns e.g. on social investment, support schemes and accelerator and competence building programs. The UK also has one of the world’s strongest advocates and member organizations for social enterprises – Social Enterprise UK, that has done a great job in building partnerships between social enterprises and corporates.

This event will feature presentations from a few inspiring examples of social enterprises from the UK, that have formed successful partnerships with traditional private enterprises. We will also hear about Social Enterprise UK’s work to promote this kind of collaboration through their Buy Social Corporate Challenge campaign.

We hope the examples can inspire the development of partnerships between social enterprises and corporates in Denmark.
