NN Social Innovation Fund

How the fund operates

At NN, we believe that targeted support for social innovation can help close well-being gaps and drive positive change. Social enterprises help drive social innovation and make a positive impact on society. Via our NN Social Innovation Fund we champion early-stage social enterprises that create solutions that support financial, physical and mental well-being. As the type of support we offer varies, so does the type of impact we contribute to and the way that it is measured.

Through strategic partnerships with impact funds NN Social Innovation Funds gives social enterprises access to:


  • Funding
  • Mentorship
  • Networks
