High hopes: Local social entrepreneurship offering real-time solutions Mihai Cristea 05/02/2021 | 18:06 We’re living in a time when world-changing ideas are moving as quickly as possible, with some of them coming from organisations which are able to disrupt the status quo and drive sustainable, large-scale change. Every idea starts with someone trying to solve a problem, and new social entrepreneurs and new ideas on how to impact the world using our consumer power are gaining more visibility. Romania is following this trend too, with organisations like Ashoka Romania and Social Innovation Solutions taking the lead and helping local ideas turn into social businesses.
