This Meetup is an opportunity for us to get to know one another, and start exploring co-opportunities.

We're all busy people, and there's no need for a group that meets just for the sake of meeting. On the other hand, we all have things that we can learn from other people involved in social enterprises. By being aware of one another's work, we can be alert to that one networking contact that can make a world of difference. And, we may be able to create synergies by doing some of our work together. It Takes Us All!

About Social Enterprise:
Social enterprises are organizations which trade in goods or services, and link that trade to a social mission. The need to deliver on financial, social and environmental performance targets is often referred to as having a triple bottom line.

It could be that the profit (or surplus) from the business is used to support related or unrelated social aims (as in a charity shop), or that the business itself accomplishes the social aim through its operation, say through the employment of people from a disadvantaged community including individuals and existing business who have difficulty in securing investment from banks and mainstream lenders.
