Social Entrepreneurs
Entrepreneurs are at the heart of building and accelerating the good economy. They find innovative solutions to pressing issues, balancing social impact with sustainable business models. SOCAP supports the most promising entrepreneurs through scholarships and tailored services such as the Impact Accelerator Weekend, innovation showcases, a marketplace for entrepreneurs’ goods, and dedicated mentoring.
PROUDLY IN PARTNERSHIP
