At Macro Level

At Meso level

It intends to support Social Entrepreneurship Support Organizations (SESOs) through capacity building programmes, strategic alliances with local and international financial institutions and exchange and networking events, to improve the quality, innovativeness and outreach of their services targeting local SEs.

At Micro level

It offers support to Social Enterprises through financial and technical support and dissemination of promising and successful social enterprises at national, regional and EU level.
