The interest in Social Enterprise investing is growing all the time – particular recent highlights have been UnLtd’s Big Venture Challenge and the number of award winners at the UKBAA Annual Awards in Liverpool earlier this month who had a Social Enterprise element to their businesses. HM Government is now enabling social enterprises to access finance from angels and other private investors through Social Investment Tax Relief and Community Interest Tax Relief, as well as institutional fund managers. We have a Social Stock Exchange and Community EIS is becoming evermore popular. This very special conference will include all the key players in the market, discussing the topics that matter to private investors and business angels. It will be unique, special and insightful.
