Venture Café - Beyond Profit: Innovation for Social Value

"Social value" is no longer just a corporate social responsibility checkbox - it is a powerful driver of funding, procurement, and cross-sector partnerships. As an ecosystem activator and neutral convener, Venture Café invites you to look beyond profit and explore how intentional innovation can solve some of society's most pressing challenges.

Whether you are navigating strict procurement requirements or looking to scale a mission-driven startup, this event is designed to break down silos, spark actionable collaboration across industries, and drive meaningful community impact across Greater Manchester and beyond.
