Yunus Social Business (Corporate)
Organization Details
Yunus Social Business’ mission is to support social entrepreneurship from two angles. First, we provide funding to social businesses through our investment funds in Kenya, India and Brazil (55 social businesses in our portfolio across the 3 countries).
Through patient capital and tailored non-financial support, the YSB funds help social entrepreneurs grow their impact. Second, through YSB Corporate, we partner with corporations to help them bring the concept of social business to their operations and create impactful programs to support social entrepreneurs that are close to the company’s core business.
