About the Episode

In our first, and maybe only, B side episode, ABSI Connect and AB Seed staff/members discuss what the social economy and social innovation is and how they go together like peanut butter and jelly. You’ll hear a bit about both the organizations as a whole, what their individual fields look like, and where the overlap and connection points are between the two of them. 

About AB Seed

AB Seed (Alberta Social Economy Ecosystem Development) is a collaborative of social enterprise and social finance leaders seeking to develop a strong social economic ecosystem in Alberta.
