The overall goal of Narada’s social enterprise division is to advance cross-sector collaboration and resource sharing as well as help make the concept of social enterprises more mainstream in society. In 2017, the Narada Foundation made significant progress toward achieving this year’s three main objectives, which were: 1) shaping the China Social Enterprise and Investment Forum into a critical piece of sector infrastructure to promote social enterprises and social investments; 2) spreading the concept and viewpoints of social enterprises; and 3) promoting innovative models and methods that occur under the broad concept of social enterprises.
