We had the great joy to welcome Professor Yunus at “La Cantine Numérique”, May 23rd. The aim was to give voice to friends and contributors of social business. Prof. Yunus has been, as always, committed to affirmative action : "We are still at the beginning of social innovation. " The social business would be subject to follow!". Explanations in Silicon Maniacs.

Anyway, for now, become a social entrepreneur is a question that arises when one is young (it seems). Considering the interest around the Forum Convergences, Le Monde, tries to understand the reasons why a young becomes committed for social business.

Another topic, the General Meeting Community never ceases to leave memories. More than a month after this wonderful event that has welcomed more than 2,000 people, Fanny from Fanny's Party, shares his testimony and pretty pictures, which our favorite is just below.

Finally, even if here is no doubt that this is already noted in your diaries, the Ashoka Changemakers Week starts next week. 

The team will be there. With you ?

Yesterday, danone.communitities attended the 6th meeting of a series of seminars conducted by the Center for Strategic Analysis. This cycle has the theme "Social cohesion through its instruments.  We were interested by this session because it offered to discuss "Social entrepreneurship in the service of social innovation".

At the outset, the introduction traced the path of social enterprise across the Anglophone and Francophone lands.

If it is considered that social entrepreneurship in France is more a « state of mind” than a real model, commentators stressed the common definition of one who "made​​" : a social entrepreneur is "someone who seeks an innovative solution to an unmet social need" (Vincent Chriqui, Managing Director of the Center for Strategic Analysis).
