UK and Ireland

Social Enterprise International Ltd are founders of the social enterprise movement in the Ireland and the UK and have worked in over 40 countries often being the first to introduce the idea of social enterprise. Our belief is that business is best when it has a social purpose, applies values and ethics and is democratically managed. We also work for the redistribution of wealth through progressive enterprises. We have pioneered ways for people to manage and govern social enterprise by setting up models of social licensing, social auditing, and new development strategies. We set up the first course for managers in social enterprise in Leeds in 1999 (Accredited) and then in 2002 accredited at level 4 with the University of Hull. We initiated the first UK social enterprise courses for teachers in 1999 based on our co-publication with the Community Action Network (CAN) called ‘Learning by Doing’ and then delivered groundbreaking summer schools with Sheffield Hallam University (2009 – 2014) where participants helped us develop our ideas around FairShares social enterprises. We have developed and supported innovations around the world, pioneering new decision-making and development processes (e.g., Barrowcliff Model, Shared Growth, Social Enterprise Planning, OPERA) and are now active in applied research projects funded by Erasmus+ and Horizon 20/20 such as NEMESIS, SPEED and ESEN. We are passionate and focused on doing more, harnessing the skills and energy of more people, and bringing social enterprise to new countries.
