PUTTING THE SPOTLIGHT
ON SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP
WHAT WE DO
We are setting up a media archive system to support Social Entrepreneurship globally. The archive will include international news and film coverage of innovative initiatives that solve social challenges in pursuit of attaining the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
WHY WE DO IT
There is no quick and easy free access to consolidated information and media coverage of Social Entrepreneurs and their diverse innovations and initiatives across the globe. Social Entrepreneurs’ solution-based projects will likely gain wider community support and achieve greater impact if their initiatives are highlighted in the media. Media houses currently do not have easy, instant access to media assets, such as press releases and photographs, to enable them to report on Social Entrepreneur’s initiatives and provide their audiences with updates on their progress. Broadcasters and film production houses also do not have easy, instant access to film footage and the licenses required to use the content.
HOW WE DO IT
We collect media assets from Social Entrepreneurs globally. All media assets will be curated, tagged and categorised, in order to be shared with news media and film production houses globally. Software will be used to analyse the media assets to identify synergies and any potential opportunities where solutions can be combined as a package.
OUR GOAL
We aim to provide media houses with access to a broad knowledge of social solutions that will help to shift news coverage to become more optimistic, hopeful and engaging. Social Entrepreneurs will benefit from the publicity, which will enable faster growth and lead to increased funding and expanded support networks. By combining many solutions and innovations we aim to accelerate involvement in social initiatives in order to attract impact funds, private equity and foundation donors.
