Supply Change was a pleasure to partner with on an event that brought together large corporates and social enterprises around delivering social value. As well as bringing a calm professionalism to both the planning and the execution of the event, Supply Change also brought an extensive network of social enterprise and corporate contacts with a shared mission to maximise social value in both public and private sector supply chains.
