The State of Social Enterprise Support in Europe and Neighbouring Countries

Based on an extensive survey of Euclid Network (EN) members, this report provides insights into, amongst others:

• the types of organisations that help build social enterprise and innovation ecosystems and support social enterprises to become successful
• their organisational structure
• their financial health
• the kind of support they provide
• insights in positive impact created
• what their barriers, challenges and needs are to become even stronger champions of social enterprise and social innovation.

In the 2020-2021 report, EN attempted for the first time to engage its members in in-depth impact measurement.
