SUMMARY:Strategies for Scaling Corporate Societal Impact
DESCRIPTION:Scaling partnerships between companies and social enterprises can be challenging due to access limitations and corporate partners’ unfamiliarity with effective engagement strategies. However\, years of global efforts have provided valuable insights into how companies can engage with social enterprises to amplify their joint impact. \nIn this session\, the SPP Supplier Diversity Chapter will be receiving a very special guest\, Daniel Nowack\, Head of Global Alliance for Social Entrepreneurship at the World Economic Forum. Dan will be taking us through some of the key findings published in the State of the Social Enterprise Report that was distributed in April\, as well as explaining how procurement and sustainability professionals can make use of the Corporate Social Innovation Compass when developing their own strategies\, including proven methods for scaling social enterprise engagements across various industries and geographical contexts.
