Our global community
The Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship recognises that there are various vehicles for driving and championing social innovation: politics and government, markets, academia as well as social enterprises.
We believe social entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs are key to tackling global challenges and improving the state of the world.
Our goal is to highlight and expand leading models of social innovation. Search the entire Schwab Foundation network of social entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs by award category, year awarded, sector, or region of impact below.
