SEWF 2014

The Social Enterprise World Forum is the international event for social enterprises all over the world to come together and discuss policy and practice, to learn from one another and to network. The event visits a new continent each year and has been in Scotland, Australia, USA, South Africa, Canada and Brazil. In 2014 the event will take place in South Korea where we expect 600+ delegates to attend globally. The number of delegates continues to surpass that of each previous year’s event and we predict there will be a continual increase over the next few years as SEWF gains greater importance within all business sectors worldwide. The high quality of the audience is represented from an eclectic mix of organizations, from community projects, large scale social enterprises and both the public and private sector. Delegates are encouraged to attend from any type of organization with an interest in social enterprise and in making a difference in the world. For further information on SEWF please click here.

The main theme at this year’s Social Enterprise World Forum is ‘Social Change through Social Enterprise’, where we will emphasize the need for social change through social enterprise and how it can contribute to solving one of the world's social problems -, job creation, and play a role in creating social values. The forum will look at how we can address social change specifically through examples of Social Innovation, Social Inclusion and Social Investment from some of the industry’s global leaders.

This event will showcase innovative concepts for sustainable development and growth of social enterprise. It will also establish a strategy for social integration, the key driver for social value creation through social innovation and social enterprise.
