Digital bootcamps for social entrepreneurs<\/h2>\n\t

Social entrepreneurs tackle societal issues in an entrepreneurial manner while striving to drive systemic change. In close collaboration with our network partner Ashoka, the world's largest network for social entrepreneurs, AdEx Partners organizes bootcamps to help social entrepreneurs master challenges in the areas of IT, digitalization, strategy, and other transformations. Selected projects receive support over several months with the expertise of AdEx Partners consultants to develop and implement new solutions for individual issues.<\/p>\n

In 2020, student consultancies from the JCNetwork e.V. umbrella association also participated in advising the social entrepreneurs for the first time. Here, students were able to gain insights into the consulting activities of experts and contribute their own perspectives to the development of solutions.<\/p>\n

Digital participation is not a privilege! As a shared responsibility, it must be inclusive in an increasingly technology-driven world. Our bootcamps are a living expression of this commitment: so far, we have shared our expertise, methods, time, and trust with over 40 non-profit organizations, social enterprises, and foundations in Germany and Switzerland. To support outstanding social enterprises, we are also a partner and supporter of Ashoka.<\/p>\n
