Quote

Social enterprises have a unique capacity to cope with risks and challenges of a modern world, as well as always fresh motivation to bring positive impact to societies. I see social economy actors as change-makers and responsible leaders of today, and I like to see myself having the same traits. This is the very reason for me choosing social entrepreneurship as my vocation and focusing on being responsible while working but also as a buyer, stakeholder, friend, member of the society. The concept of social economy brings together what is in my head, my knowledge, skills and ability to recognize opportunities and react to them and with what is in my heart as a person with beliefs and dreams about our societies. It feels like being at home, not just at work.
