The Social Business Trust
Social Business Trust (“SBT”) is a partnership of seven world class businesses, who have come together to combine their resources and expertise to help accelerate the growth of social enterprises. SBT believes there are a number of social enterprises capable of scaling up their operations on a regional and national level and has a clear and ambitious goal: to help transform the impact of social enterprises and thereby improve the lives of up to a million people in the UK. SBT’s strengths and capability come from a combination of the partners’ commercial and industrial experience; their insights into the needs and sensitivities of social enterprises; and their operational expertise and access to growth capital.
