Why attend the conference dedicated to the social economy?

This year, world leaders put the theme of the social economy on the main agenda of the Davos Economic Forum. The European Commission will launch the Social Economy Action Plan at the end of 2021. In Romania, the National Recovery and Resilience Plan will include dedicated measures for social entrepreneurs. So much interest tells us something! On May 13, the event of the year dedicated to entrepreneurship and social economy, will be organized in Iasi - the city that put on the map of Europe models of good practice in the social economy and brought to Romania the EY Social Entrepreneur of the Year 2016 award!
