Who we are
The Social Value Exchange builds award winning digital products that help public, private and community organisations ‘do well by doing good’.
Our products:
- Enable large organisations to leverage spend in their supply chains to incentivise suppliers to maximise their social and environmental impact
- Help large organisations have better social and environmental impact, winning them more work as a consequence
- Build the resilience of our local community organisations - enabling them to help people live better, healthier and more independent lives in a community setting.
For a decade we have worked with hundreds of organisations across all three sectors and are experiencing significant growth. Right now, we have over 2000 organisations using our technology.
Why join the Social Value Exchange?
The private sector can no longer operate on the basis that its only priority is its shareholders. Local communities and our environment matter.
Governments across the world have introduced legislation, in response to the changing public mood, to enable the private sector to turn genuine social and environmental impact into drivers of long term, sustainable value.
So now, the public sector must also deliver. That’s where we come in. Our digital marketplaces bring together public, private and community sectors to maximise Social Value and environmental impact.
This isn’t motherhood and apple pie. We’re doing it and it’s working. If this sounds important to you, get in touch and let’s see if there is a match.
