Public/Private

At Inspire2Enterprise we want to help the social landscape grow and thrive. An important part of this is working with government departments to shape thinking around social enterprises. And to partner with large private businesses to create value through corporate social responsibility (CSR).

Public sector and social enterprises

If you’re a public sector organisation or body looking to understand how you can enter into and benefit from the social market, we’re here to share expertise and best practice. Our experts can advise on how government departments, for example, should engage with social enterprises. How they can develop a voice that is listened to and recognised. By doing this, public sector organisations can open up themselves up to new opportunities to work with social enterprises.

In the changing social landscape, public sector commissioners and procurers are duty bound to consider social enterprises as part of their supply chain. Read about Bold procurement  and get in touch to discuss next steps.

Private sector and social enterprises

As with the public sector, our work with large corporates is designed to create and maximise valuable partnerships with social enterprises. This is often as part of a business’s CSR programme. We are dedicated to finding the best ways for corporates to invest in social enterprises and realise a return on investment. This could be anything from employing ex-offenders, to offering internships to school leavers and university graduates.

The emphasis is always on finding routes and initiatives that have tangible benefits for the public or private sector organisation and the social enterprise. Talk to us about the value of thinking truly socially and how it could be a successful way to deliver sustainable business growth.
