Creating the Market – Making the vision a reality

The investors are scaling up and Big Society Capital is ready to capitalise the Market. A range of major funds are already here and more are in the pipeline. How do we turn this into a cohesive marketplace? What is the sector and public understanding of the Marketplace? What is holding up deals? How we can ensure more supply means more and better quality deals? How do you judge the quality of a deal?

This is your chance to ask the panel and make your voice heard on the new Social Investment Marketplace.
