EVPA, together with its partner organisations from Eastern Partnership countries and Russia, will host an online Regional Launch Event from 9 to 11 June 2021 to introduce our “Collaborate for Impact” project, and to increase understanding of social entrepreneurship and social investment in Eastern Partnership and Russia.

Join the event to explore how social entrepreneurship and social investment are developing in the Eastern Partnership region, and to learn about challenges and opportunities to foster collaboration at the regional level on these topics.

“Collaborate for Impact” is a 5-year project, funded by the European Union, which aims to foster development of social entrepreneurship and social investment in the region.

During 3 days, participants will have the opportunity to be introduced to social impact investment, and will get familiar with the role of the business sector and government in the implementation of these concepts at the national level.

Practitioners of social investment will share case studies and best practices in collaboration with business or with public institutions. We will also showcase examples from the Eastern Partnership countries and Russia, where different forms of social entrepreneurship and social investment are already taking place.

The Event will bring together diverse stakeholders from the region, who are either already implementing some forms of social investment and social entrepreneurship, or are interested in engaging in the topic.

The event is free and will take place in English with Russian interpretation.

Who is this event for?

Anyone who wants to learn more about social entrepreneurship and social investment in the Eastern Partnership region and Russia, and more specifically: social enterprises and entrepreneurs, civil society organisations, representatives of the business community, impact and social investors, government and public institutions, academia, and media.
