On the 25th – 26th of July, the Social Impact Manager (SIM) consortium met in Athens to officially launch the project funded by the European Commission under the Erasmus+ programme. In a display of collaboration, all 14 partners, some of whom joined virtually, came together to kick-start this innovative venture.

The SIM project aims to create a hybrid and multifaceted profile of a manager with different competences, all of which are functional to make a company grow in terms of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility). It focuses on the social impact of companies, emphasising their interconnectedness with communities. This initiative targets growth, not only financially but also in terms of societal and environmental well-being, concentrating efforts in five key countries: Austria, Greece, Croatia, Italy, and France.

During this initial meeting, the consortium discussed the project’s timeline and mapped out the next steps to turn this vision into reality. Starting in July 2023, the SIM partners have embarked on a journey that will last for three years, culminating in March 2026.
