Help the WMCA to shape the ‘Social Economy Investment Fund’

Are you a decision maker in your social enterprise, community business, cooperative or working in the public sector?

Then join us to help map the process and share your ideas, concerns or experience of obtaining investment into your business.

We are hosting several round table discussions to co-create the social investment fund options for social economy businesses across the West Midlands in partnership with the West Midlands Combined Authority, Key Fund, Power to Change and CJD Consultancy.

Join us at one of the Free events held across the Midlands this August –– hurry, spaces are limited, and if possible, only one person per organisation to attend.

These sessions will be recorded, and the recordings will be used for the evaluation process. If you have any concerns about this process, please let us know in advance.
