Seedkit Launch: Helping Social Enterprises Measure and Communicate their Impact (Video Available)
Seedkit is a new, self-managed reporting platform designed to support social enterprises to measure, track, and communicate operations and impacts via customised dashboards and reports.
Initiated and powered by the Centre for Social Impact Swinburne and Melbourne Social Equity Institute, and funded by the Victoria State Government, Seedkit was co-designed with social enterprises and guided by a steering group of experts from across the social enterprise ecosystem.
The Seedkit project team includes some of Australia’s leading authorities on social enterprise. Professor Jo Barraket AM and Libby Ward-Christie will provide background on Seedkit’s development and will introduce a range of learning resources also available through the platform.
Participants have the opportunity to see Seedkit in action and meet the project team during the event.
