Speakers included Philip Blond, Director of think tank ResPublica;  and Angela Smith, Minister for the Third Sector.

The conference also saw the launch of the Social Enterprise Mark.

The new brand for social enterprises will identify businesses which meet defined criteria for social enterprise, and help consumers recognise that businesses displaying the Mark are trading to benefit society and the environment.

 

For the past six years Voice has brought together thousands of people from the UK and abroad, including leaders from the worlds of social enterprise, government, politics and business.
