Join us for SECNA's quarterly meetup!

The themes for our quarterly meetups this year will align with what our members have identified as what the sector needs more of (access to markets, capability building, securing capital and networks). The theme for the this meetup will be Funding for Social Enterprises - Grants, Debt & Equity

All enterprises need capital (money) to start and to grow. Charities favour grants and donations. Profit maximising companies favour equity (investors) and debt (borrowing). Social enterprises sit somewhere in the middle and the ways in which they are funded is becoming more nuanced.

We'll talk to experts in philanthropy, debt and investment to get their views on the trends, challenges and opportunities.

This event is a great chance to connect with social enterprises, social entrepreneurs, and their supporters in a relaxed setting. This hybrid event welcomes everyone, members and non-members of SECNA. It's a great chance to bring colleagues or friends interested in social enterprise.

6:00pm: Arrival and registration
