Funding Innovation
There is rising investment in social innovation coming from public, private and third-sector organisations. In particular, philanthropy and larger foundations are increasing their investment, but also the strategic focus as to how to best invest and fund for reaching highest social outcome. The Funders network focuses on building capacity for the operations of Funding and Investment actors, as well as enabling a stronger collaboration helping to align the collective societal impact obtained by a wider social innovation community.
