Social Enterprise Summit Scotland 2025: Free Tickets for GSEN Members

The much-anticipated Social Enterprise Summit Scotland is back for 2025. This year’s theme is ‘Fair Economy, Shared Future’.


We are delighted to be able to offer 10 free tickets exclusively for GSEN members (a max of 2 bookings per organisation).

Taking place at The Barracks, Stirling on Tuesday 2 September, the Social Enterprise Summit Scotland 2025 will place a bold spotlight on the rise and relevance of inclusive democratic business models (IDBMs); approaches to enterprise that are rooted in equity, shared ownership, community voice, and collective benefit. 

Developed with equity and inclusion at its heart, this event will celebrate how social enterprises across Scotland are leading a movement toward fairer, more participatory ways of doing business. It will also serve as a platform to connect, challenge, and co-create ideas that shape the future of an inclusive economy.


This year’s event returns with a packed programme, including:

The latest Social Enterprise Census: a focused session on what we can learn about inclusion, participation, and the sector’s evolving role in the economy.

Public Policy for Inclusive Democratic Business Models: a cross-party panel discussion exploring how public policy can support the growth and sustainability of inclusive democratic enterprises.

Breakout Sessions: more details to come.
