How many social enterprises and cooperatives have a high-quality offer, real products, services and skills, but struggle to find their place within the supply chains of large companies? Not because they lack value, but because they lack the right tools: the language, the structure, and the ability to present themselves as partners, not only as suppliers.
IMPULSO is a training and mentoring programme promoted by Fondazione Compagnia di San Paolo and ELIS Innovation Hub, created to strengthen collaboration between social enterprises and the corporate world by supporting organisations in their growth, positioning and dialogue with the B2B market.
Through training, networking, mentoring and experimentation, the project fosters the development of more structured, sustainable and shared-value-oriented partnerships, helping to reduce the cultural, organisational and operational gaps that still limit the encounter between for-profit and for-purpose organisations.
From this perspective, IMPULSO contributes to building sustainable supply chains, more generative value chains and innovative models of collaboration between for-profit organisations, social enterprises and ecosystem actors.
The programme is aimed at social enterprises and cooperatives based in Piedmont, Liguria and Valle d’Aosta with an already defined B2B offer.
On July 2, from 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM, a free online webinar will be held to present the programme.
