Mobilising and empowering business support organisations helps create a more supportive ecosystem for impact. Beyond building the ecosystem, Better Incubation strengthened the long-term financial stability of social entrepreneurs, especially those from underrepresented groups. Programme highlights included the development of practical tools like the Better Incubation Roadmap and the opportunity to connect with communities of practice. Connecting with the communities broke down siloes and brought unexpected collaborators together. EVPA members now have the opportunity to discover rising talent from underrepresented groups and boost access to professional-advancement opportunities for these individuals.
