Description
Insights from the recent two year Indigenous Social Enterprise Fund pilot provide lessons about supporting Indigenous social enterprises to grow.
The Indigenous Social Enterprise Fund (ISEF) was established to support the development of Indigenous social enterprises to scale and become sustainable. A $1 million, two-year pilot, the ISEF offered a combination of a grant and a flexible, interest-free loan. The pilot was funded by Indigenous Business Australia (IBA) and managed by Social Ventures Australia (SVA). Reconciliation Australia and PwC were key partners.
