Distributing
We spend our days encountering people and organisations who are passionate about our society, who are committed to strengthening it and making positive changes.
We hold regular highly participative and networking-focused events. Networked technology is an essential ingredient in everything that we do.
Often our events are the birth place of brilliant ideas, connections and new projects; we like to ensure those ideas get exposure and support. Both Nexters and Spring were inspired by one of our events and have since flourished in to projects delivering social impact.
To find our about our events please subscribe to the newsletter or email events@thebigsociety.co.uk.
Social Trade Missions

The UK is seen as a global thought leader and practitioner in social enterprise, innovation and investment, with 1.7m people leading social sector organisations (2.8% of the population) and one in three startups primarily socially motivated.
