Abstract

Social enterprises are the designers of the impact economy. An economy that works for all people: circular, inclusive and poverty-free. Social Enterprise NL connects and strengthens these entrepreneurs and works on a more favorable ecosystem. A system in which sufficient capital is available, where more and more customers appreciate social value, and where governments see these entrepreneurs as ally and act accordingly.
