Strengthening the ecosystem.

To strengthen the ecosystem for social entrepreneurship and social innovation we work with various strategic partners to raise awareness, to advocate for better opportunities and to increase knowledge and inspire towards creating social and environmental impact through entrepreneurship and innovation.

We work in European partnerships to share learnings and insights on an international level and collaborate through national initiatives to develop a stronger support structure for social entrepreneurs in Sweden.

A current project is Samhällsentreprenörskap Sverige 2.0, funded by Svenska Postkodlotteriets Stiftelse, where we are working to develop an ecosystem that is inclusive, that engages companies, organisations and people who are passionate about creating positive societal change, and that enables cross-sector collaborations that develop solutions to our societal challenges and contributes towards achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.

We’re also working in a consortium alongside Södertörns högskola, Reach for Change, Changers Hub and Fabege, to establish a regional platform for social innovation in Södertörn in southern Stockholm. This is one of six initiatives across Sweden funded by ESF+.

Previous projects have focused on collaborations between social enterprises and corporates, or how municipalities can work in closer partnership with social entrepreneurs and local social innovators. We have been able to do this with funding from the likes of Nordic Council of Ministers, Erasmus+ and The Swedish Agency for Economic and Regional Growth.
