The Social Enterprise Summit Scotland 24 – Tickets Now Available!

Posted: 03 September 2024, in News

The Social Enterprise Summit, Scotland’s premier annual social enterprise event, is back for 2024 with an inspiring line-up of speakers and unparalleled opportunities to connect with the social enterprise community. 

Hosted by Social Enterprise Scotland (SES), this year’s summit welcomes Tom Arthur MSP, Minister for Employment and Investment, as the keynote speaker, setting the stage for a day of impactful discussions in November.

The Social Enterprise Summit will take place on Thursday, 7th November 2024 (10:00 am – 4:00 pm) at the Surgeon’s Quarter Quincentenary Conference Centre, Edinburgh. The centre provides a professional and collaborative environment, ideal for a day focused on shaping the future of Scotland’s social enterprise sector.

This year’s agenda will focus on social enterprises’ contribution to delivering a well-being economy and will cover a diverse range of topics. Tickets are now available for a full day of sector-leading speakers, informative roundtable discussions, and significant networking opportunities.

This is a must-attend event for anyone looking to influence and participate in Scotland’s social enterprise sector. The summit provides a platform for key decision-makers, social enterprises, leaders, social entrepreneurs, public bodies, and support organisations to engage, share expertise, and network, all aimed at empowering positive narratives and fostering collaboration for sustainable social impact in Scotland.

As a cornerstone event in the social enterprise calendar, the summit promises to build on the successes of previous conferences, originally organised by CEIS. SES is committed to catalysing a new way forward at national, regional, and local levels to ensure the voices of social enterprises are recognised and amplified.

The summit coincides with the Social Enterprise Awards Scotland 2024, taking place later that evening at the Scottish Parliament. Hosted by Paul Sweeney MSP, the awards celebrate the best of Scotland’s social enterprise sector, recognising the innovation, impact, and success of organisations and individuals who are making a significant difference in their communities. Spaces for the awards reception are free but limited.
