The Social Enterprise Exchange 2024 conference takes place in Sheffield, 21 November 2024, celebrating International Social Enterprise Day and promoting new collaborations to build the social economy.
The need for transformational change has never been more apparent – on climate, jobs, the cost of living, health and social care, and the indefensible chasm between rich and poor. Social enterprises, co-operatives and community organisations have a central role to play in building a stronger, fairer and greener economy.
Join us for a day of inspirational speeches, lively and topical discussion, practical workshops and, of course, plenty of opportunities for networking and exchange. Our annual event brings together social enterprises, social entrepreneurs and sector stakeholders from South Yorkshire and the North of England.
