CODE social enterprises

In November 2019, A Beautiful Mess was admitted to the Social Enterprise Code. The Social Enterprise Code creates recognition and trust. If a company is included in the Register, then everyone – from consumers to government and from employees to investors – can see that, deep down, it is a social enterprise. The Code is also a tool on the road to growth and improvement: social enterprise is a process, and in that process the Code can act as a guide. Last but not least, by joining the Register, the social entrepreneur becomes part of a learning network of passionate colleagues who, each in their own way, pursue the same goal: impact first! The companies in the Register keep each other on their toes – through peer review – and encourage each other by exchanging knowledge and experiences.
