What is social enterprise and how do we support?
Social enterprises are organizations that 1) generate revenue from the sale of products and services, and 2) have a core mandate to generate positive social, environmental or cultural impact in their communities. They can take many legal and operational forms.
Social Venture Circuit supports these social impact ideas to grow and thrive as sustainable social enterprise through education and advocacy.
