We are Italy’s first
Social Innovation Centre.
We believe that social value can generate economic value.
SocialFare develops innovative solutions for products, services and models, to address present and future societal challenges, through a new sustainable economy, inclusion and social progress.
Why
promote Social Innovation?
Social Innovation is inclusive, participated innovation developed jointly with several other stakeholders, with the shared purpose of improving the lives of people and communities, also developing a new type of entrepreneurship, encouraging mature businesses to move towards Integral Sustainability, highlighting the potential for positive change.
What are
Acceleration Programmes?
Acceleration is a method of development that sets an interactive pace to testing ideas, products, services and solutions.
Startup acceleration is enhanced and completed by financial investment instruments.
SocialFare uses acceleration by completing it with the methods underlying Social Innovation design tools and by developing skills, strategies and social impact design tests: knowledge acceleration.
Why do we invest in
Impact Entrepreneurship Business?
We believe that Impact Investments means to implement our commitment to develop sustainable solutions in present and future human societies: our intention is to generate a measurable, scalable, social and environmental impact as the focus of business and investment actions.
How we develop
New Connections?
Working together takes us afar, creating new possibilities for everyone, and opening other possibilities to learn, exchange, cooperate and evolve.
Thanks to an open and dynamic ecosystem we are able to involve people and places, developing connections in a physical and virtual space. We multiply the ability to pursue aims that share the same value principles, strengthening individuals and generating new practice communities through Rinascimenti Sociali (Social Renaissance), convergence networks & platforms among people, bodies, associations, startups, businesses, funds and institutions.
We put people at the centre of co-design projects, combining acceleration and Social Innovation methods.
SocialFare mentors the development of knowledge, tool and design practice with professional experts to address present and future social challenges.
SocialFare works as an impact consultant for large organizations, SMEs, Third Sector (non-profit) Organizations, National and International organizations, Associations, Innovators, Entrepreneurs…
