Calling all Social Enterprises and Impact Businesses!
Social enterprises across regional Queensland are navigating rising costs, workforce constraints and tighter funding while new opportunities are emerging as procurement and partnerships place greater value on ethical practice and social impact.
Join us for a Lunch & Learn with Adele Laughton, CEO of the Queensland Social Enterprise Council, to explore what these changes mean and how purpose-led organisations can strengthen their position.
In this practical session, Adele will cover:
- The evolving operating environment for social enterprises
- Changes in funding, procurement and policy expectations
- Strengthening revenue resilience and credibility
- Practical actions to improve competitiveness
- Live Q&A
If you’re building a purpose-led organisation in regional Queensland, this session will give you practical insights, sharper positioning and clearer direction.
This event is brought to you by Smart Precinct NQ and the Queensland Social Enterprise Council.
