About us
Welcome to ASSETS – Advancements in Social Economy through Technological Solutions. We are a collaborative project funded by Horizon Europe, designed to drive innovation in the Social Economy (SE) sector.
Over the next three years, ASSETS will transform how SE organizations operate by leveraging cutting-edge technology, enhancing evaluation tools, and fostering collaboration to support social inclusion, quality job creation, and sustainability.
Our network
The ASSETS project is backed by a wide-reaching international network that’s deeply involved in its goals. This network plays a key role in developing solutions, exchanging expertise, and expanding the project’s influence. Its varied members work together to drive innovation, foster inclusion, and support sustainability within the Social Economy.
Our network represents a diverse group of universities, research institutes, NGOs, living labs and industry partners, working together to ensure the project’s success.
