Are you passionate about making a difference in the world? Do you have an innovative idea to address pressing social or environmental challenges? The Social Entrepreneurship Challenge 2025 invites individuals and teams from Belgium to develop and scale solutions that align with the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

​

Social entrepreneurs play a crucial role in shaping a more sustainable and inclusive future. As the World Economic Forum (2020) highlights, "Social entrepreneurs and other front-line actors have a key role to play and need to be given greater prominence and support."
