Or do you work for a big City firm and want to find out more about establishing supply contracts with social enterprise organisations?
Buying Socially: The Case for Social Enterprise in Big Business Supply Chains is a free knowledge and networking event taking place from 5.30pm on Wednesday 4th February at The Escalator in London’s Whitechapel.
