Are you a Social Entrepreneur?

We at betterplace.org see ourselves as “Social Entrepreneurs” - along with many others who have uploaded their projects on betterplace.org. Being a Social Entrepreneur, does not only involve doing good, but also implies developing a sustainable business idea that has a social impact.

Innovative business ideas that have a positive social or environmental impact, deserve support especially taking into account the tough economic context in which they compete. We are therefore very happy to help promote such causes. In cooperation with the partners of this years “Social Entrepreneur 2009” Awards - the Schwab Foundation, Boston Consulting Group and Financial Times Germany - betterplace is looking for potential candidates. Up until 31 July, you can nominate organisations that are committed to innovative social change here.
