Abstract

Although innovation is in most social entrepreneurs’ DNA, they still face a number of common challenges. Limited access to finance, business networks and supply chains are just some examples. By sharing networks and business knowledge, corporates like IKEA back emerging social entrepreneurs and make it possible for established ones to scale – giving them a better chance to create sustainable solutions. Teaming up with social entrepreneurs gives corporates the chance not only to contribute to equality, inclusion and decent livelihoods but also the opportunity to learn about how to become a more circular and sustainable business while living the value; entrepreneurship of the many. Learn about ways corporates can partner with social entrepreneurs and businesses.
